==Combatant Status Review Tribunal==

Initially the ] ] asserted{{Citation needed|date=June 2008}} that they could withhold all the protections of the ] to captives from ]. This policy was challenged before the Judicial branch. Critics argued that the USA could not evade its obligation to conduct ]s to determine whether captives are, or are not, entitled to the protections of ] status.

Subsequently the ] instituted the ]s. The Tribunals, however, were not authorized to determine whether the captives were ''lawful combatants'' -- rather they were merely empowered to make a recommendation as to whether the captive had previously been correctly determined to match the Bush Presidency's definition of an ].

Detainees who were determined to have been properly classified as "enemy combatants" were scheduled to have their dossier reviewed at annual ] hearings. The Administrative Review Boards weren't authorized to review whether a detainee qualified for POW status, and they weren't authorized to review whether a detainee should have been classified as an "enemy combatant".

They were authorized to consider whether a detainee should continue to be detained by the United States, because they continued to pose a threat—or whether they could safely be repatriated to the custody of their home country, or whether they could be set free.
