"I hope you've got plenty of time. "

No takers- no one ever wants to admit they're advocating new powers for the Judiciary.

I don't mind those who are wrining their hands over this conflict between the laws of war and the Constitution- that's a good thing to do, we should all be very concerned.
But I turn to the Founders for guidance in how to handle it and those who ignore the balancing of powers and rights the Founders attained in the Constitution are foolish IMHO.

Congressional authorization for the president's use of military force and Habeas Corpus to object to it's use against citizens- that's a commendable process that is being followed.

It is???? Where? Please show me this? If your referring to EX PARTE QUIRIN, 317 U.S. 1 (1942). you are absolutely wrong.
