Can’t make sense of what you just said.
What you and your fellow travellers don't understand is a simple logical proposition. If you can deny a habeas corpus hearing to just one individual, then you can deny it to everyone. You will counter, but these guys are alien enemy combatants detained on foreign soil and have no constitutional rights. But you fail to see the circularity of your argument. The logical trap in this is that until you can force the government to make the case that they are being held on lawful grounds, you cannot know that they are alien enemy combatants. You assert that they must be because you can trust the military. But this is the same military, the same legal group, that has sworn under oath that they had sufficient evidence to charge and try the Haditha marines. So either you believe that the Haditha marines are guilty despite being found innocent, or else you cannot trust sworn statements by senior military officials, at least not the ones answering to political appointees.
That is why we have an independent judiciary. It has nothing to do with war. We do not have ongoing combat operations in Guantanamo - hard to take I know.
Another point. It is not the habeas rights of enemy combatants that is being protected here. It is the habeas rights of every American citizen. It is your right to have a hearing to prove that you are an American citizen being unlawfully detained that is at issue. If you cannot get a hearing because someone claims you are classified as an enemy combatant, someone as trustworthy as the prosecutors who swore out charges against the Haditha marines, you cannot get a hearing to prove you are an American citizen.
It's called due process. It is your constitutional right and you want to throw it away. I care about my rights even if you want to trample on your own.
I am trying to save your constitution and you want to cheer on the jack booted thugs who want to trample on it.
