The law, as presently interpreted, properly in my view, is that an enemy combatant captured and imprisoned overseas cannot invoke US rules on due process because the territorial reach of the federal courts does not allow them to provide him with any relief. This is absolutely clear from Johnson v. Eisentrager

That's interesting. I'd be interested to hear more of "Cliff Notes" version of the major precendent cases, suitably dumbed down for those of us (like me) who are not lawyers.
