"...And it shows once again why the decisions of unaccountable judges  
shouldn't be allowed to supplant those of an elected Commander in  
Chief..."

That's quite a revealing choice of words.  Shouldn't the fundamental  
concept of checks and balances always apply, regardless of the  
situation?  Or does waging an eternal "war" conveniently suspend  
checks and balances, and enable an unaccountable Commander in Chief?
