President Kennedy

Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy has declared his war-making supremacy over both the Congress and the White House. In Boumediene v. Bush, Kennedy has extended the right of habeas corpus to non American enemy combatants captured abroad who are trying to kill Americans in this war on terror. The bad thing about this declaration is that more Americans are most likely going to die; this means that our soldiers will hastily release combatants, which is a huge threat to Americans. I feel this is a little outlandish since our goal right now is to fight this war on terror and bring down the al Qaeda. Giving combatants the right to challenge detention by the government, allows them civil liberties of the American citizen. I don’t believe they should be given this right since they are malicious people and not American; this could be a tragedy for civil liberties in the long run. Furthermore, letting terrorist go after they have been detained by the U.S. ultimately doesn’t stop them for planning another attack. This is a threat to American citizen’s safety and I don’t think we should be giving al Qaeda any type of lawful rights in this war.
