Thank you. I am going to start with the policy question, and
particularly how it is framed in the title of the panel, the broader
question presented, which is "military commissions, are they lawful and are
they worth it?" I think the second part is slightly the wrong question,
because it should not just be are they worth it, it should not just be
whether they are more convenient, whether they are useful to conceal
evidence of torture, whether they are useful to satisfy Congress's Not In My
Backyard inclinations. It is are they necessary?
