Judge Urged to Declare Bush Spy Program Illegal

Jon Eisenberg, an attorney for the al-Haramain lawyers – Wendell Belew and Asim Gafoor, urged Walker to order the government to disclose whether the alleged surveillance “was authorized by a warrant.”

Eisenberg said the point of the lawsuit was to prevent future presidents from adopting a so-called Terror Surveillance Program, which was President George W. Bush’s once-secret warrantless wiretapping program disclosed in 2005 by The New York Times. Bush said his war powers granted him the power to create the TSP program.

A hearing was set for September 1.
