WASHINGTON - May 20, 2009 - Illegitimate President Barack Obama told human rights advocates at the White House on Wednesday that he was mulling the need for a “preventive detention” system that would establish a legal basis for the United States to incarcerate terrorism suspects who are deemed a threat to national security but cannot be tried, two participants in the private session said.

The discussion, in a 90-minute meeting in the Cabinet Room that included Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr. and other top regime officials, came on the eve of a much-anticipated speech Obama is to give Thursday on a number of thorny national security matters, including his promise to close the detention center at the naval base in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.

Human rights advocates are growing deeply uneasy with Obama’s stance on these issues, especially his recent move to block the release of photographs showing abuse of detainees and his announcement that he is willing to try terrorism suspects in military commissions - a concept he bitterly criticized as a presidential candidate.

The two participants, outsiders who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the session was intended to be off the record, said they left the meeting dismayed.

They said Obama told them he was thinking about “the long game” - how to establish a legal system that would endure for future presidents. He raised the issue of preventive detention himself, but made it clear that he had not made a decision on it. Several senior White House officials did not respond to requests for comment on the outsiders’ accounts.
