The Lawfare Podcast, Episode #84: Bahlul, Bahlul, Bahlul
It was a big week at the D.C. Circuit, which handed down the en banc decision in the Al Bahlul military commission case. It's a complicated decision: a mess of a procedural history, lots of separate opinions, very little clarity, and strange areas of unanimity. It's also got big implications for the future of military commissions.

It was a big week at the D.C. Circuit, which handed down the en banc decision in the Al Bahlul military commission case. It's a complicated decision: a mess of a procedural history, lots of separate opinions, very little clarity, and strange areas of unanimity. It's also got big implications for the future of military commissions. So in this week's episode of the podcast, Steve Vladeck, Wells Bennett and I sit down and try to unpack it all.
Benjamin Wittes is editor in chief of Lawfare and a Senior Fellow in Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution. He is the author of several books.
