Actually it does, that is the powers that were delegated to the SCOTUS. I Think you would be more accurate in saying just because the SCOTUS says something is legal, doesn't make it moral, there is a big difference. Not to sound rude, but this was probably one of the more ridiculous and false statements I have ever read here on the board.
Also the constitution does make exception for enemy combatants through various articles of war and treaties that were passed as law by our great country, as well as powers delegated to the POTUS whether they be in time of peace or war.
