We are the USA, Not the USW

 As
the founder of USA Patriotism! and the
father of a Marine veteran who served
in Iraq . . . I feel that I must speak out about providing
non-American enemy combatants the right to a civilian criminal
trial.
I cannot envision the Founding Fathers ever agreeing to non-American
enemy combatants wanting to destroy our beloved America . . . being
treated like citizens with a civilian criminal trial. And I believe
that the founders involved with developing our unique and sacred
constitution . . . would have expressly stated allowing enemy
combatants this “American right” . . . if it was intended.
Nor
should it be a gray area either to be interpreted based upon
political whims for whatever reason including for the perception of
those outside of America.
Allowing non-American enemy combatants the right to a civilian
criminal trial diminishes what it means to be an American and
undermines the foundation of the constitution . . .
We are the USA not the USW (United States
of the World).
 Our leaders need to remember that they would not be in their
positions today, if it weren't for all those who fought to keep
America free . . . with so very many staining the ground red upon
their ultimate sacrifice for country.
Then
there is what these fallen heroes would say about allowing
non-American enemy combatants the right to a civilian criminal
trial...
Can you hear them too? . . .
“A military trial!!!”
