Mr. Hamdan's sentence, in the Administration's view, will be not that selected by the military, but whatever the president wants. This position is unjust and unwise.

Hamdan could have been prosecuted in federal court but the government instead decided to make his offenses war crimes. This in legal terms is ex post facto application of the law -- and it is prohibited by the U.S. Constitution.
