Supreme Court rules in favor of Donald Rumsfeld.

The whole point of the suit was to show that Rumsfeld had, in fact, given orders for torture. That his subordinates engaged in it is not debatable; but that was not being argued. The plaintiffs did not get a chance to try their case, which was to bring forth evidence showing Donald Rumsfeld to be a war criminal. It is indicative of America’s decline into authoritarianism to see such an anti-democratic ruling.
