A mere two weeks into her tenure, President Hillary Rodham Clinton has
announced a sweeping roundup of illegal enemy combatants, the first
step in a comprehensive program designed to protect the American people
from potential terrorist activities. In accordance with the Military
Commissions Act of 2006, the nearly one million detainees will be held
indefinitely without trial or recourse to legal counsel until such time
as the President determines they no longer pose a threat to the United
States and its allies.
