In this "war" the battlefield is pretty much the entire globe.
I'm all for locking terrorists up, but there needs to be transparency - a way of knowing they are locked up for legitimate reasons. I do think politicians would have, "gone to the financial and political expense of locking these terrorists up for no good reason." Why not? It's not their money. If the politicians who got us into Afghanistan and Iraq need to cover their azzes for something, I don't think they would hesitate for a moment to spend our money and lock up innocent people to do it.
