	Captain James Yee's tale- Tale of a Muslim Chaplain in Guatanamo Bay
		Captain James Yee became a prime target in the war against terror one morning last September, although nobody deemed it particularly important to inform his wife, Huda Suboh, who drove to an airport outside Seattle later that day to meet a plane her husband had never actually boarded.
		Yee was up to no good, and may have been plotting a jailbreak of barely comprehensible audacity.
		Despite their differing faiths, Yee, now 36, had been the answer to George Bush's prayers: a Chinese-American convert to Islam, he was regularly wheeled out in media interviews as living proof that Washington was not at war with Muslims.

	Reason
		Yee's case, which began with accusations of espionage and devolved into an indictment of his sexual habits, shows the importance of restraining that power, especially when people are most inclined to give it free rein.
		At a preliminary hearing in December that was attended by Yee's wife and their 4-year-old daughter, the first witness was the woman with whom he'd had an affair, who was asked how often and where they'd had sex.
		After Yee's attorneys complained that the government still had not formally reviewed the material to determine whether it was in fact classified, the hearing was postponed, and it has been delayed repeatedly since then.
