In a war that cannot and will not have a measurable end, POWs could theoretically be held forever with no legal rights other than combatant status. So we end up as permanent jailers anyway.

I suspect even some of the hardcore neocons aren't ready for the US to run permanent gulags. So they need some legal cover to do something with the baddies they locked up.

The whole thing is starting to look like a drunken game of Twister.
