A Soldier's Perspective
Miranda Rights for Terrorists?
Would this have any affect on the loss of life?
Casualties for both American and Iraqi forces, as well as Iraqi civilians, would soar since we would effectively lose any early warning of terrorist plans.
A good number of threats have been neutralized before they materialized because of good intelligence from captured terrorists.
Could this cost us the war?
That is the toughest question. I honestly think that it could cost us the war not only in Iraq, but the Global War on Terror. This war is one that will not be won if terrorists are granted rights like those outlined in the Fifth Amendment and in Miranda.
The enemy we face does not act like a traditional armed force, nor do they use tactics like a traditional armed force.
