Immigrants may be taken, tortured, and detained forever.
Utilizing the recently signed Military Commisions Act, the Bush administration is making the claim that immigrants can be taken from US soil and deprived of all rights. Ali Saleh Kahlah Al-Marri, was arrested in 2001 while studying in the US. He has been labeled an “enemy combatant” and is being detained. The label can’t be challenged in court and neither can his detention, according to a reading of the MCA. His lawyers are arguing that the lack of judicial review is unconstitional. This is another good reason to become a US Citizen as soon as you possibly can.
