Graham- Boston Suspect Should Be Given Enemy Combatant Status

senator Gramm what did you conclude out of talking to the FBI about what they knew about the bombing suspects well

the Russians requested that we %HESITATION look at this guy they interviewed him they interviewed his parents they interviewed the the

and they wrote the Russians back with all the information they gather and said do you have anything else and

the Russians never responded and went over to Russia but apparently when he got on the Aeroflot plane they

misspelled his name so it never went into the system that he actually went to Russia well let me get this straight senator

because yesterday you said on television that the FBI dropped the ball but now you see in the FBI did

was as much as they could under the circumstances as a one to two things happened the FBI either drop the ball our system doesn't allow the

FBI to follow this guy now and under appropriate fashion I think once the Russians made

the request the FBI did a good job of looking at him the reason we don't know we want to Russia's because the name was misspelled but

in two thousand twelve and thirteen when he became more radical when he went on the internet when he interacted with this see mom in Boston the

FBI tells me there's limitations on what they can do in situations like that so we need to revisit our laws we're at war with radical Islam why

did they do what they did in Boston they think we're a Christian nation that were a colonial power that we're infidels they hate us because of who we are that's

why they're trying to kill us they don't warn our money they don't want our property the sooner we realize that we're at war will radical Islam income

up a system to defend ourselves back the better way off will be I don't wanna please state but I want a nation where

combatant observe other police commissioners on the show this morning have said they're really not in that camp just yet why do you think you should be what

has to go to federal court in my view he's not eligible for military commission trial because he's a American

citizen I wrote the military commission at two thousand and nine he will go to federal court he will get all the rights associated I

care less about the trial a first year law student could do this trial I want to gather intelligence what does he know about terrorist organizations within our country does

he know of other terrorist activity that may be coming our way that's a national security inquiry as

an enemy combatant he's a potential enemy combatant has ties with overseas terrorist he's clearly a radical Islamist I

would hold him under that theory when the public safety accepting expires that's very limited that was a rape case where a guy had an empty holster there

were allowed to question him about where the gun is that's not together intelligence you're not entitled to a lawyer and this idea of the only way we can question them about

%HESITATION national security matters is to go through his lawyer turns over to the terrorists and their lawyer controlling

information techniques all that's crazy I know that is absolutely crazy this

it can be used to help us and a citizenship doesn't give you immunity from not the law of war if you take up arms a hostile hostile
