padilla is an american. captured on american soil. been held 5 years without charges.
He didn't do anything but allegedly plan an attack (and he is a halfwit patsy if there ever was one)
5 year, no charge. And if it can happen to one man legally, it can happen to 300 million legally.
O.K. An American was "captured" and held without charges. That is an outrage. I do not support it.
To say 300 million can be held "legally" without charges for five years is absurd. And it also has nothing to do with the foreign terrorist who admitted his role in 911.
