Boumediene v. Bush

I’ve been trying to get a good grasp on the recent Boumediene v. Bush supreme court ruling without much success (that’s the one that granted habeas corpus to Guantanamo prisoners). Most of the news articles focus on the political aspects and are generally vague. I read some of the court opinion itself (along with the dissent), but wasn’t able to reconcile the two side: they seemed to be arguing about different things, which I suppose isn’t that usual. If you have any suggestions for ways to learn about this sort of thing, I’d appreciate it.
