Habeas Corpus
Quote:
U.S. Constitution - Article 1 Section 9
Clause 2: The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.

It's the legal theory of imminent danger.
Imminent danger is an immediate threat of harm I suppose but it is a stretch in this case.
The terrorist wins when he alters the everyday behavior and the human rights freedoms of his victim.
However, the argument of foreign combatants gives no US constitutional rights to those held. |
