DT,
This piece at American Thinker supports your view fairly well. It's a shame that Breyer, Stevens et al couldn't have a jihadi from Guantanamo paroled to them in order to achieve a better understanding of the nature of an illegal combatant.
I don't care what they think about the Geneva Conventions nor do I care what they decided re the Tribunals...

The SC usurpted the powers of the Congress on this one.
