I think anyone criminally charged should be allowed their habeas corpus rights. The divulging of what you are being charged with and the evidence against you and the opportunity to face your accuser are basic rights of law. In sensitive areas like with our govt during wartime the argument has been that they should be detained until war's end, and due to classified docs and methods of operations in the field, it was argued that it could place our operatives and soldiers at risk for prosecution and retaliation. The only way to solve that problem is to put them in a prison camp cut off until war's end and then prosecute under international law.

No they should not. But the denial of habeas corpus should apply only to enemy combatants from foreign countries.

Absolutely not! Captive enemy combatants have historically only been released at the end of the conflict or during mutually agreed to prisoner exchanges.

No, but why would you need to know anyway?
