"This was an incorrect outcome IMO." It's a conservative court, following the constitution. It's completely inhumane to imprison people forever with no process. We used to condemn the Soviets for the same practice.

Not sure if it is "lowering" or just "adjusting to the requirements of the task at hand". Either way, these people should not have the same rights as American citizens. The constitution isn't limited to citizens. They are, in essence, on our soil. Habeus corpus has been a basic principle of human rights for 800 years. If they take it away from them it's a slippery slope to taking it away from you or me.

It's not American to lower are standards to "the people we are at war with". Not sure if it is "lowering" or just "adjusting to the requirements of the task at hand". Either way, these people should not have the same rights as American citizens. What better way to sell them on democracy. A war will never be won with guns but it can be won by persuasion. All the posturing Bush did with the axis of evil was never as effective as the NY Philharmonic playing two nites in Pyongyang. You say you have an IQ of 140...use it!
