Once again Mrsmith I offer:
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
Now either dispute these citations as meaningless or show me what legal precedence allows the Joint Resolution on the use of Force that set the standard to allow the President to do what he has done in the Padella case.
One last time Mrsmith. The Intent of Congress in passing Joint Resolution has nothing to do with the actions taken by the President in the Padella case. That sir, is the point.
Lastly, Mrsmith nowhere on this thread have you posted any legal precedence to support your case either. All you have done is cite your opinion. Now respectively shut me up.
Anyone can determine for themselves the meaning of the word "persons". Thank you, I think we're through here.
