You must give reasons for your bald assertion that the Resolution exempts Americans from military detention. All your arguments on based on that claim.
Offering more arguments based solely on this opinion of yours does not give it any more credence.
Showing that it does not authorize trials by tribunal does not address the point of whether it authorizes detention by military force.
Citing law or precedence or by looking in the congressional debate for intent- for examples- would be a constructive response.

Authority under the Constitution, article I, Section 8, which gives to the Congress the responsibility and authority "To define and punish . . . Offenses against the Law of Nations."

TITLE 50, United States Code, Chapter 22, Chapter 33 Sec, 1542 to 1548, Chapter 34 Sec. 1651.

Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. 802. ART. 2, 831 ART. 31. 832. ART. 32, 838. ART. 38.

Title 18, United States Code and sections 113 (a), (b), (c), or (f), 114, 1111, 1112, 1201, or 1363.

Military Order--Detention, Treatment, and Trial of Certain Non-Citizens in the War Against Terrorism , November 13, 2001

Body of Principles for the Protection of All Persons under Any Form of Detention or Imprisonment. Adopted by General Assembly resolution 43/173 of 9 December 1988

1949 Geneva Conventions and 1977 Additional Protocols

Lastly, The Intent of Congress under the Current Resolution was never and is still today NOT to include US Citizens in any form of Military Tribunals. Nor was it ever to allow the President this power. Since you have been most insistent I have taken the opportunity to CALL the Senate Committee on Judiciary to confirm this. IT IS THE FULL INTENT OF CONGRESS AS OF THIS WRITING TO HAVE US CITIZENS TRIED UNDER US LAW>

Additionally the current LEGISLATION on Military Tribunals has yet to be fully established by Congress as of this writing. So the Congress and the Tribunals Presiding Judge have yet to set any standards governing the tribunals.

Now you so me LAW supporting your claim.
