Would you pay attention. NO ONE, NOT ME, NOT THE USSC has said that judges are qualified to make these determinations.

What part of convene military tribunal can your dim mind not understand? The SC merely said that you, the President of the United States under the laws of the United States which allow for the convening of Military Tribunals, should convene said military tribunal (as you always used to do) and find that said terrorist is a terrorist. Then you can lock him away forever as far as we are concerned..

Absent you the President of the United States, convening a lawfully consituted military tribunal, which you have legal authority to do, and always used to do to determine that said terrorist is said terrorist, you are going to be subject to a writ proceeding . The simple way that you, the President of the United States can avoid a writ proceeding is to convene a military tribunal, which you have the legal authority to do, and determine that said terrorist is a terrorist and not an American citizen who happened to be on vacation in the wrong place.

What part of convene a military tribunal and find the guy guilty of being a terrorist or unlawful combattant does your feeble mind not understand?

You are clearly ignorant of the world state of affairs. The primary purpose of detaining these guys in Cuba is to keep them off the battlefield not bring them to justice . Trials in due coarse...the priority is keeping them off the war zone . Is that really too hard for you to understand ? why waste taxpayer funds on tribunals when our purpose is not to imprison them but keep them out of the war on terror.
