"PUT UP/SHUT UP-If anyone has any charges they want to bring-BRING THEM ON"(Torture Victim's Lawyer)
"If anyone has any charges they want to bring, we have had a system for the last 800 years which has proved perfectly satisfactory, and they should put up or shut up. If anyone wants to put him on trial, in the immortal words of George Bush, bring them on," - Clive Stafford Smith, the lawyer representing torture victim Binyam Mohamed.
