Thanks for all the details on that. I knew there would be trouble the second those maggot lawyers landed in Guantanamo. All they care about is jerking the system around for their own self glorification. Bullshit civil rights is their god

They get to brag at cocktail parties how they tweaked the US Government by doing pro bono work for Jihadist scum.

Yeah, I know what side I’m on and what side they are on

If they are POWs they should be detained. If they are unlawful combatants they should be so dealt with. But they should be accorded due process in an adversarial process, and the Secretary of the Navy should have been savvy enough to write enacting regulations that ensured that, not enacting regulations that gutted the intent of the DTA. Sorry, but I think it is the Secretary of the Navy that screwed this one up.

Bad legal advice has been a hallmark of this administration. Remember these are the same DOD folks who didn't seem to mind when they lost 6 nukes.
