There's no such legal term as an "illegal enemy combatant". That was an invented term of the Bush administration that was used as a loophole to engage in things that were unconstitutional, and the Supreme Court has spoken against it. There are only prisoners of war and common criminals. Stateless terrorists fall in the latter category, like it or not.
