Apparently so. I wonder what happened to Posse Comitatus?

There was another thread on this a day or so ago (which I can’t find now) that analyzed the bill. This author is (technically) not correct. The bill specifically excludes US citizens. However, it does extend the WOT battlespace to the US. Other legislation no doubt allows for US citizen detainment in a WOT battle area, so the net result is probably the same.
