No law can suspend habeas corpus, yet, NDAA 2012 does.

Not so:

US Constitutiona, Art I, Section. 9, P2:
The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.

Eminent Domain is for the government to build roads, bridges, and federal installation and not for suspending private property rights; yet, the Supreme Court said it does. The government can take your property to sell, give away, collect more taxes, whatever, for any reason at any time.

Ah, good old Kelo. [/sarc]
The funny thing is that it would be EASY to reverse it: simply use it as reasoning to seize the real property of the Justices and see how quickly they would reverse it.

The Constitution does not give the federal government power to tell you what to or not to buy. Yet, the Supreme Court said they can. They just have to call it “taxation” first.
If you don’t think treaties are made law then you need to read up on our DOT (Department of transportation) rules and regulations, they are UN driven.
They don’t need to simply set aside the 2nd, they only need to regulate it out of practical use.

Good points.

“Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it”

Except the 2012 NDAA doesn’t require invasion or rebellion. It simply requires the federal government to deem a person a target.
