"How can they have constitutional rights when they are not USA citizens???" The argument goes 'since they are being held under AMERICAN CONTROL, and on what is --- to all effects and purposes say's the Supreme Court --- AMERICAN SOIL (GITMO).' Green's 75-page opinion was the unclassified version made available for public release. It stemmed from 11 cases involving Guantanamo prisoners. Her ruling probably will not be the final word on the issue. A different federal judge in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 19 dismissed the cases of seven Guantanamo prisoners on the grounds that they have no recognizable constitutional rights and are subject to the military review process. The cases could be appealed to the U.S. appeals court, and then ultimately to the U.S. Supreme Court.
