One quote from this story is more than a little shocking, and the very fact
it was even mentioned in a DOD guidance document should disturb everyone, no

> "In detaining American citizens, full constitutional rights are afforded
> except where curtailed by higher guidance or accepted prison practice,"
I thought the highest guidance on legal matters pertaining to US citizens
was the US Constitution and Bill of Rights. Or is that just sentimental
nostalgiac pre-9/11 thinking?
