Rasul already gave them access to US courts. Reason being that they're in US custody in a place under US jurisdiction, Guantanamo, which is ours indefinitely. Rasul is 6-3, it's not going to be revised any time soon.

If you have a citation to a case that says once these guys are in the court system they get no due process, please link it. DC District Court cases, and there are a lot of them, give them due process.

we're not alleging they did anything wrong

One of the things we analysts do is categorize things and put them into the appropriate boxes. It seems to me that, for the criminal justice system to be applicable, the action in question must first be a crime. If it's not a crime, you go to alternate box B, whatever that may be. If it fails the crime test, further barking is inherently up the wrong tree.
