  1. @Otiscorner Your definition, while it may be the same, is not the proper one for our discussion. It's a reporting definition, nothing more.
  2. @Otiscorner Slightly...yes, but again, you're sidestepping the larger point. Do you believe that was the right decision?
  3. @Otiscorner Your missing my point. When was the definition 1st adopted - that was the major part of the question.
  4. @Otiscorner ...his rights, or had a court order to search and seize his property, or detain him, ect...
  5. @Otiscorner ...giving him these rights (which he does not constitutionally have), you risk having him freed because no one read him...
  6. @Otiscorner ...of a reason alone. You realize that very little evidence against them would be admissible in civilian courts. So, by...
  7. @Otiscorner "Could be...legal" ? Of course it's legal. And the best place to try them. The rules of evidence and discovery are enough...
  8. @Otiscorner Excuse me...."decided"... #typo
  9. @Otiscorner Just read his opinion. Jeesh! The court also decide that Jap Americans could be held in camps back in WWII. Was that right?
  10. @Otiscorner Then will you please tell me, Mr. "I've studied terrorism", when was the term legally defined and how?
  11. @Otiscorner Huh? Actions are irrelevant to what they were. You are showing that you have almost 0 understanding of the law.
  12. @Otiscorner The information of who they "represent" is actually irrelevant - legally that is.
  13. @Otiscorner *HEADSLAP* Of course not, but Roberts sets up the historic precedent quite clearly.
  14. @Otiscorner Bush didn't "expand" diddly squat - he just applied existing case law to a new type of enemy that had not been legally defined.
  15. @Otiscorner "Just showin it started w/ Bush" was your comment on military tribunals to handle foreign combatants.
  16. @Otiscorner So, FDR's treatment of these people is very relevant.
  17. @Otiscorner ...civilian clothing, so they were not uniformed soldiers - which is the closest thing to a "terrorist" we have as a legal def.
  18. @Otiscorner Once again, you don't get it. You claimed Bush was the first to set up tribunals, which is false. 2nd, the 'spies' were in...
  19. @Otiscorner So what? It has nothing to do with this case. Clinton decided to prosecute the attack as a criminal action. We weren't at war.
  20. @Otiscorner ...terrorists to file a habeas petition. Read the dissenting opinions, there were 4 of them. That will present the law as well.
