Did everyone not see this coming? Of course he is silent now when his rights were read he was given an attorney who told him to be quiet. Plain and Simple.
This is why I agree that he should be tried as an enemy combatant. One I do not believe he is a true American Citizen being he took his Oath of Allegiance 7 months ago on 9/11/2012 where it should be quiet obvious to prove he lied during that Oath and took it under false pretenses. Why should Dzhokhar be treated like an American when he obviously never had intentions to be an American.
“I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the armed forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God.”
Of course, he lied to the infidels. No way he can be considered an American citizen. He is an enemy combatant.
