No court. No Jury. No warrant. No judge oversight. No record of arrest. The accusations against you are never revealed and the evidence against you never disclosed.
You are not subject to the rights granted by the U.S. Constitution or any other humanitarian document regarding your treatment.

Not-so-cleverly redefined terms that allow one political maneuvering when confronted with violations of foreign treaties and our own domestic laws – the ones specifically designed to restrict these kinds of centralizing policies and preserve human rights. Torturing is welcomed into practice under the double-speaking guise of “enhanced interrogation technique.”
