This book presents the five major enemy combatant cases of the
post-9/11 era. Presented in narrative form, these original
documents tell the story that clarifies the questions at the heart
of the American detention of alleged combatants in the war on
terror. These documents discuss the right to counsel, the right to
a trial, the right for the accused to see the evidence against him,
and the intersection between domestic and international law. The
book highlights the tension between the needs of national security
and the liberties allotted to alleged enemies of the state by
highlighting the basic question of what the US Constitution
guarantees and to whom. The reader can follow the evolving
arguments about presidential powers in time of war, habeas corpus,
the Geneva Conventions, balance of powers, and matters of detention
and prisoner treatment. This book is meant for those who seek to
understand the issues that have dominated the search for balance
between justice and security in the war on terror.
