On the recordNovember 30, 2011
Let's imagine a scenario next week where we find an al- Qaida cell exists that is planning a series of attacks against the United States, and within that cell we have some American citizens and we have people who have come here who are noncitizens. Would the Senator agree with me, since Congress has designated cooperating or collaborating with al-Qaida to be an act of war, that entire cell could be held as enemy combatants and questioned by our intelligence community as to what they know about the attack and questioned on future attacks?
