there is nothing govt can do under NDAA 2012 that it couldnt already do under the combined provisions of the Patriot Act and AUMF of 2001.

So why do they need it?

See post 88. Also see the parts of the bill where it actually states US citizens are subject to existing laws and the detention of terrorists is meant to be in accordance with AUMF.
