National Defense Authorization Act 2012 S 1867
There have been some alarming claims about this, specifically as it relateds to Americans and indefinite detention.
They have been addressed in the bill that was passed.
I looked up the bill and I call your attention to sec. 1031 & 1032
1031 Authorizes the Military to Detain Terrorists, except Americans
" ... AUTHORITIES.—Nothing in this section shall be
11 construed to affect existing law or authorities, relating to
12 the detention of United States citizens, lawful resident
13 aliens of the United States or any other persons who are
14 captured or arrested in the United States.
...
1032 Requires the Military to Detain Terrorists, except Americans
... The require-
11 ment to detain a person in military custody under
12 this section does not extend to citizens of the United
13 States.
There's nothing like actually reading the bill that passed.
