""no individual in the custody or under the physical control of the [U.S.] Government, regardless of nationality or physical location, shall be subject to cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment.""

This would be a great victory for the libs and Mcain. From what I understand, the word 'Degrading' is subject to 'cultural sensitivities', and thus no interrogation techniques could be used on the Islamic terrorists.

This amendment also reduces terrorist activity to the level of bank robbery.
It criminalizes terrorism.
Lets see, didn't someone try that already?
Oh yeah, klintoon and co.
1993
WTC
So a terrorist knows he will be treated like a US citizen if he gets caught trying to topple two skyscrapers and kill 10,000 people.
Or gets caught after he has succeeded.
