"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? We didn't love freedom enough. And even more -- we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward." (Abridged) A.S.

Oversmear wants OJ trials for Alqaida terrorists.
He wants terrorists coddled.
Foreign combatants in time of war have never been entitled to Habeas Corpus, but Oversmear wants freedom for terrorists.
His propaganda is all sophistry.
Limited Government Liberal is as oxymoronic as it gets.
More than 30 of the Gitmo detainees released have shown up as terrorist homicide bombers on the battlefield.
K.Oversmear wants Alqaida set free so they can kill innocent civilians and our troops again.

averageworkinggal, if you don't want your rights, I'll take 'em! I could use them, mine are getting taken away with every day that passes by our fascist government.
Oh, and averageworkinggal, please listen to Ben Franklin's quote on giving up essential liberties as many times as it takes to sink in that giving up our rights for ANY cause is NEVER "patriotic" or "American".
All your kook ... ( 6 months ago by averageworkinggal)
All your kook rhetoric does not give you standing until you loony lefties come up an objective factual example of a law abiding citizen that was abused. You loons have produced no such evidence.
These military courts are for Islamonazi enemy combatants taken from the battlefield.
Any American arrested for espionage or terrorist activities is tried under the civil criminal system.

Wrong. Any American ... ( 5 months ago by 7ick)
Wrong. Any American deemed an "enemy combatant" is answerable to only the Secretary of Defense under this Act. No check, no balance, no SC. The same Intelligence agenices that were certain of WMD's in Iraq can, under the legal guidance of this Act, hold you to account indefinetely..Sorry, to break it to you, but it's not just loony lefties that are sick of this shit, but traditional conservatives that will not tolerate hypocrisy and the carving up of the Constitution from any side.

Besides the point, not only has torture NEVER worked at any point in time, but the neo cons signed this to allow torture on people that place value on suicide? Does this sound "objective" and reasonable to you?
You are so ignorant ... ( 5 months ago by averageworkinggal)
You are so ignorant.
The Congress and the President did devise an effective detainee system in time of war that provided far more habeas rights than ever provided for lawful enemy combatants let alone unlawful combatants, terrorists.
Unlawful combatants, under the laws of war, can be shot on site when captured on the battlefield.
Congress provided ... ( 5 months ago by averageworkinggal)
Congress provided the greatest amount of due process and habeas rights that have ever been provided to alien enemy combatants that were never detained on US soil. The detainees could challenge a judgment of enemy combatant against them in the DC court of appeal and seek remand or release on appeal if the evidence against them is insufficient.
There are periodic reviews from the DoD where they can introduce new evidence and seek a subsequent CSRT review of their enemy combatant status.
9/11 happened but ... ( 5 months ago by averageworkinggal)
9/11 happened but Libs have decided instead to side with AlQaeda against the US as evidenced here.
Speaking of Lies: Libs claiming that they had a 9/11 mindset as in just before 9/11. It's just the cover story to attack Bush for 9/11.
They never had it before 9/11 (the Jamie Gorelick Wall to disrupt counterterrorism cooperation and the "Let's just arrest them after they kill Americans rather than confront them on the battlefield abroad" policy) and this enemy combatant hysteria propaganda.
My liberties were ... ( 5 months ago by averageworkinggal)
My liberties were always well protected by President Bush and the Congress from 9/11 through 2006. And my security as well. No terrorist attacks since 9/11.
Since you are into creating fake hyseria, as Libs always do, I assume based on your crackpot argument that you are likely be an unlawful enemy combatant since you are waging political war against America in time of war.
So I'll turn you in so that you can learn how well the DTA and MCA protected your rights to challenge your detention.
averagegal. Answer. ... ( 5 months ago by 7ick)
averagegal. Answer. Is torture of an Islamofascist bent on glory for death and suicide going to be pruductive? Is giving a future tyrant a 2nd court system American? What if a Lib got hold of those powers? Save the Levin, Limbaugh jumbalia. Wikipedia the document, and if you're more gifted than Aristotle, enlighten us. 2 weeks ago Congress & the SC granted these new rights. The rights are 2 weeks old. These rights were granted in consequence of MCA. MCA raped UN. Bush went nuts. Admit it.
An American citizen ... ( 4 months ago by averageworkinggal)
An American citizen to be made subject to the MCA would have to actually appear on the battlefield to provide proof in order for the military to detain. The Bush admin. in 2004 made it clear that it would not oppose any habeas petition from an American citizen. Americans were not going to be detained at GITMO.
These 270 are aliens captured on foreign battlefields and adjudicated as POWs by 2004 at the latest.
They had 3 years to appeal through the DTA and sat on their rights.
