Obama's detention plan is awful
He is fucking up to even be discussing this as a possibility.
Greenwald's questions are crucial - (1) have adequate reasons been given for why accused terrorists cannot be tried in civilian courts, and (2) on what basis do you believe the accused are dangerous if they haven't even been charged, let alone tried?

Scalability will be interesting to see.
