why are these operations in Somalia and Libya being publicized. Surely not to divert attention from the many and ongoing WH miscues??

As a non-US citizen, does he have the Miranda right?

Yet they plan on giving him a civilian trial in New York?
That seems problematic.

Is he a citizen? NO

He is an enemy soldier captured during war.
