which court will hear these appeals? is it the circuit court in Florida?

It's named in the amendment, IIRC, but I didn't pay that close of attention while Lindsey was talking.

One shot through the system - so I assume District Court with rights of appeal all the way to SCOTUS. Object of interaction with Article III system is to confirm status of detainee as "enemy combatant." Once through, those folks are cemented into the military tribunal system in place at Gitmo.

These people are from Afghanistan, and the plan is to send them home. But the lawyers wand activists won't allow that either. Since when is everyone in America focused on prisoners? I thought people get raped and murdered all of the time in American prisons, and I don't see anyone worried about that. Must be McCain, POW posng as war hero and expert. A view of war from a prison. Did a POW ever win a war?
