Why didn't the government just charge him with "terrorist activities" instead of illegally detaining him under a provision that relates to pre-trial activities and not grand jury investigations?

If Asscroft wants to charge any of these foreign terrorist associates or sympethizers as "terrorists", then I have no problem, providing there is proof. Just don't manipulate the law to your liking.

Bottom line, they will not deport these KNOWN TERRORISTS for a reason. What is it? They knew these people were associates of terrorists long before 9/11. Every American needs to ask the hard question, "Why, oh why, would our government let known terrorists and associates into this country in the first place". No other questions are needed.

They would not want to deport terrorists or known accomplices in order to obtain information from them. Simply deporting them doesn't make any sense from a security standpoint. Also ... Ashcroft is good decent man. What's your beef with him?

This case illustrates the problem with liberal judges. They don't have a lick of common sense. Even with 9/11 they still don't get it.

Embarassing Question.
