“Holding a Gitmo military tribunal without Congressional approval could subject the officials involved to a charge of war crimes (violation of Geneva convention) in addition to violation of U.S. law.”

Under what circumstances does it become easy to get approval from Congress?

Perhaps not under the Insurrection Act.

The position of Congress is expressed in the Federal law. Getting their approval involves getting them to change that law.
