"The Framers conceived American courts as a core component of our system, the bulwark ensuring that Americans were protected from oppressive action by their own government. Yet, now they are morphing before our eyes into a supra-tribunal: a forum standing above our system, enabling all the world — including those energetically seeking to kill Americans — to press its case against the United States."
