Keep America Safe group draws backlash after dubbing lawyers who defended terrorist suspects 'al-Qaida seven' Liz Cheney and her organisation have called lawyers who acted for accused terrorists the "al-Qaida seven".
Not long after the Twin Towers fell, Dick Cheney declared the death of more than two centuries of American tradition. "It will be necessary for us to be a nation of men, and not laws," he said. The then vice-president did his best to follow through by riding roughshod over the constitution and international laws by promoting torture, indefinite detention without trial and support for secretive military tribunals in which defendants were stripped of many of their rights.
