At least there is SOME clear thinking going on!
Quote:
Another judge sees case differently
In that case, U.S. District Judge Richard Leon concluded that foreign citizens captured and detained outside the United States have no rights under the Constitution or international law.
A third federal judge, U.S. District Judge James Robertson, ruled in November that because defendants in military trials are accorded fewer legal rights than prisoners of war, the proceedings deny them their basic legal rights. Robertson ordered the military to come up with a new procedure in a ruling that the government is appealing.
Ultimately, the conflicting rulings are expected to reach the Supreme Court.
