The Supreme Court and Habeas Corpus
I’ve written two posts on the Supreme Court’s decision about habeas corpus and the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay over on Stoneman’s Corner. I put them there because they’re more political than historical, but I’m announcing them here because some of my military history readers here will be interested. Here are the links:
- The Supreme Court and the Bush Administration’s Detainee Dilemma (6/22/2008)
- The Rule of Law in Time of War (6/13/2008)
Please let me know if you know of any historical resources on the internet that deal with these issues.
I wrote about another important Supreme court decision, District of Columbia vs. Heller, on Stoneman’s Corner too. It’s not a detailed analysis or anything. I just wanted to mark the moment: Accepting the Court’s Decision on the Second Amendment.
