Identity

Muhammed Ali Hussein Khnenah was named inconsistently on various Department of Defense documents:

• Muhammad Ali Hussein Khenaina on the Summary of Evidence memo prepared for his Combatant Status Review Tribunal, on 10 December 2004, and on the Summary of Evidence memo prepared for Muhammad Ali Hussein Khenaina's first annual Administrative Review Board, on 1 November 2005, and on five official lists of captives' names.
• Muhammed Ali Husayn on the Summary of Evidence memo prepared for his second annual Wikipedia:Administrative Review Board, on 2 July 2006.
• Mohammed Ali Hussain Khanina listed as alternate name by the New York Times.

Combatant Status Review Tribunal

[[Wikipedia:Image:Trailer where CSR Tribunals were held.jpg|thumb|Wikipedia:Combatant Status Review Tribunals were held in a trailer the size of a large Wikipedia:RV. The captive sat on a plastic garden chair, with his hands and feet shackled to a bolt in the floor. Three chairs were reserved for members of the press, but only 37 of the 574 Tribunals were observed.Template:POV-section]]

Initially the Bush Presidency asserted that they could withhold all the protections of the Wikipedia:Geneva Conventions to captives from Wikipedia:the war on terror. This policy was challenged before the Judicial branch. Critics argued that the USA could not evade its obligation to conduct Wikipedia:competent tribunals to determine whether captives are, or are not, entitled to the protections of Wikipedia:prisoner of war status.

Subsequently the Department of Defense instituted the Wikipedia:Combatant Status Review Tribunals. 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 Wikipedia:enemy combatant.

Detainees who were determined to have been properly classified as "enemy combatants" were scheduled to have their dossier reviewed at annual Wikipedia:Administrative Review Board 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.
