Graham v. Holder

SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM, (R-S.C): Can you give me a case in United States history where a enemy combatant caught on a battlefield was tried in civilian court?

ERIC HOLDER, ATTORNEY GENERAL: I don’t know. I’d have to look at that. I think that, you know, the determination I’ve made --

GRAHAM: We’re making history here, Mr. Attorney General. I’ll answer it for you. The answer is no.
