How do you know they are foreign combatants, until you hold a hearing on the record where the other guy gets to state his case? It isn't hard. When you surrender the right for a detainee to demonstrate that he is not an enemy combatant, then you surrender your own right to demonstrate the same. It is as simple as that. You claim well it cannot happen to me because I am a US citizen. Without habeas rights you have no f'in right to prove that you are a US citizen. It is that simple.
The same left wing looneys behind Haditha
Left wing looneys did not prefer charges against the Haditha marines. Very senior military commanders advised by senior JAG officers did. It is that simple. Did civilian officals weigh in because they didn't like bad press? Of course, and that is the problem. It is a big problem for you, because the civilian officials who did this are the same folks in this administration you are trying to defend.
You can't have it both ways.
Your paranoid looney lefty rantings are a waste of time.
You go in circles like a dog chasing his tail.
As long as it keeps you from doing a damage fine.
