    I still can't get over

    How this is being treated as a criminal matter and the FBI is solely responsible for solving the crime when, on the other hand, anyone who takes up arms to defend their homeland in Iraq or Afghanistan is immediately subject to sleep deprivation, stress positions, sexual humiliation, growling dogs and waterboarding. If these are such effective investigative techniques, then why aren't we using them across the board? After all, we're dealing with terrorists in every instance.

    Or does 'terrorist' have more than one meaning depending on the nationality of the suspect?
