This article is much ado about nothing, the fact that we are talking about relaxing administrative guidelines for foreign "visitors" who may be undertaking terrorist activities makes sense to me. The is really just another example of the FBI senior level incompetence and whininess, as evidenced by the following snippet from the article:

Many F.B.I. officials regard the administration's plan to establish military tribunals as an extreme step that diminishes the F.B.I.'s role because it creates a separate prosecutorial system run by the military.

Now what the heck are the FBI "officials" commenting on the use or non-use of military tribunals? Its not their decision and their input is irrelavent, this is up to the President and the Department of Justice, not the FBI.

relaxing administrative guidelines for foreign "visitors"

I don't think this conclusion is supported by the text of the article.
