The Obama Doctrine - Gathering Intelligence Through Plea Bargaining

tonight there's a new controversy heating up the Obama administration say son I have will not be what does senator Lindsey Graham think about that

well he joins us nice to see you Sir and I understand he wrote the statute right well I've got two goals one to bring him to justice and that will be done through federal court he was never eligible for military tribunals because he's an American citizen actually

now we're down to this if you don't hold him as an enemy combatant where you can question him without a lawyer our

bill lead to gather intelligence is limited by what his lawyer allow him to answer let me make sure I understand their two way someone mean enemy combatant one you can be a foreigner

who wish to era enemy Elvis out right in the night's there's another categories understand enemy combatant where you are connected to a foreign group that's trying to do harm to the United States you

could be taken into custody by the military for thirty days question and then after thirty days you get sent out to the civilian system writing

in his case he was never eligible for trial by the military that's different when I'm talking about is gathering intelligence there's

two systems in place to prosecute him for the crimes he committed into collect intelligence to protect me and you against

future attacks against our nation DDT qualify for enemy you don't know where this

is Monday we caught him Friday the bomb a doctor in full for four and a half years we caught Osama bin laden's son in law he

president has not designated anyone is an enemy combatant what does that matter all the information that led to bin laden's capture came from any combatants held at Guantanamo bay that

intelligence about future attacks it may come our way and none of the information can be used against him in

his trial I'm not worried a first year law student can convict this guy I'm going to videotape it

I wouldn't go anywhere because they'll is different than a videotape with me and if I'm worried about having time with him to

establish a reporter in together intelligence without his lawyer being present one so I

don't see the statues that in order to be eligible for what you're saying you have to have some connection to our queda how

much time do you have to find that because it sort of makes mean someone doesn't just announce I'm al Qaeda and

so that yours is the way it lowers the press in the United if our present United States his what I do in this case I

would say there's play any evidence of justice was a radical Islam and rat radical jihad

one of the most radical areas in checks dnia checks the has produced more fighters for al queda than probably any place

low level guy I want to take time to put the puzzle together we didn't know three days after nine eleven if bin laden was involved this

is a ridiculous concept to have to make this decision within three days I don't want to use any of the information against

him in court he has every right not to self incrimination when it comes to the criminal process I

part from the criminal justice system to protect the rest of us we've been doing that for a decade so in other words you want to hold them for thirty days debrief him anything he says during the debriefing anyone have a lawyer present as

I understand that anything you said Burnet debriefing could not be used against him and they want to hold on for more than thirty days but within thirty days he can petition the judge and say I habeas corpus yet saying
