Then, Harry Reid is an enemy combatant. He gave aid to the enemy. He didn't know it at the time, but most reasonable persons with half a brain would have known.I believe sallow would but he is wrong on one point Americans no matter what they are charged with are garenteed the right to a trial, even if they are caught in the act, unless they resist arrest.
You're wrong. Any American caught giving aid and comfort to the enemy, is classified an enemy combatant. Goes back to WWI & WWII. In this case, when the guy openly declared war against the USA, he gave up his Constitutional rights to the UCMJ.
He is then subject to infantry or artillery fire, or any other means employed by troops assigned to combat the enemy. If he is captured during combat, his is to be imprisoned until such time a tribunal is available. If killed in combat, he is an enemy casualty.
Interesting. Wouldn't have pegged you as being so sympathetic toward the Civil Liberties of terrorists on foreign soil.
Liberal by convenience?
LOL! Um yeah okay. That's not a stretch at all. That's exactly the same as publicly declaring war on the United States.
Amazing the rationalization people will go for if it offers the opportunity to criticize "the other party" (happens on both sides). Why hell, Reb has suddenly become an ACLU card-carrying Liberal!
