You know at this point I've just decided to laugh.

The mental picture of it happening on the battlefield is funny....

Soldier : Drop the weapon scumbag!
FBI agent : Whoa soldier hold on...

....You have the right to remain silent.....

Congressman Rogers confirmed it as he was there when it was discussed.

Reading that, it appears that it's only on detention centers once the people are arrested and not on the battlefield, so what exactly is the problem here?


You can't see the obvious problems? They're not US citizens, therefore they don't have the same legal rights as a US citizen. They shouldn't be tried in a US Civil court as they are enemy combatants not common thugs. Should US soldiers be called to testify in US courts if/when the Mirandized terrorists are brought to trial? What should happen to a terrorist if his trial is thrown out due to a technicality?

Because the left leaning individuals in control of this government believe that Al-Qaeda is a police/legal issue not a military problem.

that doesn't really answer any of my questions, but ok. Regardless, I still don't see why this is a big deal at all. They're not going to want to reveal anything anyway, which is why we have to torture them if we want information. Being read their Miranda rights isn't going to make them less or more likely to talk.

That's not the point of reading them their Miranda rights. It's to give them the same legal rights as US citizens and bring them to US courts.
