casebooks do not have milligan in it. violated theave and particularly when they have violated the laws of war, military commissions are appropriate. that reflects a country tradition to milligan which relies on the laws of war which categorize a number of situations in which military commissions are okay. and so for most lawyers, this was a case that would show when you could have military commissions. and of course now it is used in the war on terror issues because was thathe major point noncombatants don't get the part of the benefit of the milliken decision. lawyerhe case that took 's attention from milligan. that brilliant, to this is sooon -- milligan established that people do not even think about it. there is that gentleman over there. >> further questions? i'll throw one out. something we don't think about as much -- is the constitutional explanation for the emancipation proclamation, which for lincoln, invested with all the powers of commander-in-chief under the laws of war, including, forgetting about the fifth

milligan restored it to the three pages of quotation from ex parte milligan in the case. the court cited milligan when the justice from the war on terror cannot spend constitutional productions, that prisoners had a right to challenge whether they were the people described held. the court has nonetheless sustained congress'power to sustain commission, in effect endorsing chase'opinion rather than davis'. and despite the fairness outlined by the jeep a -- the geneva convention-- an american noncombatant system as davis characterized milligan has to be tried in a civil law -- unlawful combatants do not. critics of the milligan decision say this was proved largely irrelevant the issue of military trials for those held at guantanamo bay. and they can point to how the laws and prosecutions in federal court have impaired freedom of speech as in the sedition act cases during world war i, or the smith act prosecution of communists during the civil war. and of course, of the japanese relocation in world war ii. all of that is true. there is something we take for granted, as was me

. >> this weekend a speech marking the 150th anniversary of ex milligan, a supreme court decision thatt unconstitutional to try civilians in military courts while civilian courts are operating. here's a preview from ohio state university's michael benedict. devastated at the tidal wave of invectives that greeted his opinion. the conservative republican "the new york times" blasted the court for throwing its influence into the scale of those who impugned the constitutionality of everything that was done to uphold it. the editor of "independent" called it the most dangerous opinion ever produced by the supreme court. it -- not call called only they but legal commentators criticized davis and the majority for having gone beyond the fact in the case. eager to go beyond the record, to lay down principles on which they would decide other questions not now before them, including the highest powers. that is from the american law reviewreview, which at that timd just been established. davis did not understand that in the time between the announcement of the decision of and themilligan, delivery

milligan: senator dole, my name is jason milligan, active duty military and small business owner and my question is, what is your position on closing the gap between military and civilian pay scales? dole: jason, i appreciate that very much, being a former military man myself. you know, we have 17,000 men and women today wearing our uniform that receive food stamps. it shouldn't happen in america. we have men and women wearing our uniform in substandard housing. it shouldn't happen in america. and it's time we take a look at the pay scales. did get a 3% increase this year, but that's not enough. if we're going to ask young men and young women to protect us and defend us around the world and we've had more deployments under this administration than any time in history. fifty times we deployed troops around the world. every time you do that you take a risk. somebody, you know, maybe your son, maybe your grandson, maybe somebody else, but i think anybody who wears a uniform is a great american. remember vietnam? remember when people almost used to walk across the street rather than have
