I think I did tell you, because I think I kept telling you that for purposes of my argument it didn't matter whether we used the military paradigm or the law enforcement paradigm. You can't scoop up a mass of men from in and around various battlefields, "tag-and-bag" them, and throw them into an anonymous prison and leave them there "for the duration" of a war that won't end in our lifetimes, or even indefinitely. Now, that's rich. Like the real estate bubble, you are full of froth today. Criminal law = presumption of innocence + burden of proof on the Government + subpoena power + competent counsel. War = none of the above, well, maybe a JAG fresh from law school. Read Hamdi. In wartime they can be tagged and bagged until the conflict is over or they are not longer a threat, i.e., too old to fight or harm us or they shave and start eating pork. Yep, that's the way it is.
