7. was there a us citizen tortured? He/she would not be an alien and would not be covered under this ?
Is that not correct?

Is the premise not, as disgusting as it is, we can do it to alien enemy combatants. And as loosely as they defined "enemy" and "combatant" and alien is well defined.

It's all so disgusting I have a difficult time processing it, or even believing it really is happening in this day and time.

I feel like Sherman and Mr Peabody have stuck me in the "way back machine." Oh, Oh, now I've really dated myself.
