Al-Qaeda accuses Iran of 9/11 lie ... US judge has ruled that the first war crimes trial at the Guantanamo Bay detention centre, involving Osama Bin Laden's former driver, can go ahead.
Judge James Robertson dismissed a claim from lawyers for Salim Hamdan that it should be stopped while he challenged the legality of the tribunal system.
The ruling came after a military judge at Guantanamo denied a postponement.
