They can still bring habeas lawsuits similar to an American citizen. "whether such status determination was supported by sufficient evidence and reached in accordance with due process of law. provided that statements obtained through undue coercion. torture. or cruel or inhuman treatment may not be used as a basis for the determination and (C) the lawfulness of the detention of such alien." The reason I am going to vote no on the Bingaman amendment is that these exceptionsthe lawfulness of the detention of such alienwould allow a court. if they chose. to look at every condition of the enemy prisoners life and do. again. what we are trying to prevent. that you could go into Federal court and start asking for a Federal judge to intervene in your interrogation before it even starts. My belief is the military is the best group to run the war. not Federal judges. So I am going to oppose Senator BINGAMANS amendment because it preserves habeas rights for noncitizen. foreign terrorists to come into Federal court at the District Court of Appeals. DC Court of Appeals. to put a wide variety of issues on the table. I do not think that is good for us.
