Alan:
The US government has vetted and released many prisoners from GITMO, about 30 of which have shown up again on the battlefield. You should spend a little more time gathering facts before you post.
Congress under its powers to punish pirates and others who break the rules of war set up a system of tribunals to deal with the remainder. Justice Kennedy has decided that these rules don’t satisfy his requirements. As I said above, all he has done is ensure fewer lawful combatants will be taken prisoner on the battlefield and that more non-combatants will be inadvertently killed.
