So you think the President's targeting of the organization only permits him to target the totality of the organization, and not its individual members or agents?

Right.

Don't like that? I understand. I wish congress had declared war, but they did not.

Not believable.

They did NOT authorize war, with all that implies.

Keep repeating it until you convince yourself.

They wrote what they wrote, and wishing that they had declared war won't make it so. Pretending that they have declared war won't make it so. Only congress declaring war would make it so.

Oh, I see you did. LOL

I missed the point in the article which stated that Mr. Ismail was proven to be part of any organization involved in 9-11. If he had been proven to be part of such an organization, then all this would be irrelevant, since the FBI would be criminally charging him, rather than trying to block him from the USA. Therefore, it's reasonable to assume that the FBI has no actual evidence that he's part of a terrorist organization.

It is clear from the tone of your posts that you believe that the president has the authority to do whatever he wants to do to anyone, including US born citizens, at any time, in any place, based on .... something. It's further clear that you believe that this authority has been granted by congress. I'm not even sure that Congress has that authority to grant, but, in any case, the source documents simply do not support your contention.

This is my last post to you on this topic. I regret that you have allowed your wishful thinking to blind you to the clear verbiage of the relevant congressional resolution. That is all.

To answer your other question, I am not connected to this case in any way. I don't know these people, or anything about them other than what I have read on Free Republic.
