One last post on this topic (from me anyways).

=========
UPDATE:

Don’t be confused by anyone claiming that the indefinite detention
legislation does not apply to American citizens. It does.

There is an exemption for American citizens from the mandatory detention
requirement (section 1032 of the bill), but no exemption for American
citizens from the authorization to use the military to indefinitely
detain people without charge or trial (section 1013 of the bill).

So, the result is that, under the bill, the military has the power to
indefinitely imprison American citizens, but it does not have to use its
power unless ordered to do so.
===========

And this is not just American citizens caught or captured or intercepted
outside of US soil.

This bill re-defines the "battle field" as the entire planet, including
the USA.
