Three recent court cases (in the last three months) have all affirmed both this and the 1942 SCOTUS decision allowing the president to determine who is an 'unlawful enemy combatant.' The latest decision (last week by a NY Federal District Judge in the Padilla case) said that, yes, the president can order someone up against the wall and shot, but there is a remedy: The president can be replaced at the next election. > > You assume presumption of guilt and worse you assume it on the > word of a polititian.
