From: Gary Britt 

Well I think he would or should be entitled to hearing before somebody to
determine the appropriateness of his classification as an enemy combatant
or illegal enemy combatant.  He is not in my view entitled to the right of
habeas to force the government to charge him with an ordinary criminal law
violation or set him free which is what the court in Al Marri ruled.  These
are two very different kinds of hearings/trials and one is appropriate for
this kind of war and one is totally inappropriate for any kind of war.
