ROGERS, Circuit Judge, dissenting. I can join neither the reasoning of the court nor its conclusion that the federal courts lack power to consider the detainees’ petitions. While I agree that Congress intended to withdraw federal jurisdiction through the Military Commissions Act of 2006, Pub.L. No. 109-366, 120 Stat. 2600 (“MCA”), the court’s holding that the MCA is consistent with the Suspension Clause of A

As we analyze the cases in this area, we must be ever mindful that we are not dealing with a decree of a sister State, but with one of a foreign nation. Decrees of a foreign nation are not only not entitled to full faith and cred

I cannot agree. Ordinarily, nullifying an Act of Congress as unconstitutional is a drastic venture. But the institutional considerations which persuade court
