White House Threatens Veto Of Indefinite Detention Bill
WASHINGTON -- Accusing the Senate of "political
micromanagement" of national security, the White House Friday stood by
its threat to veto a defense bill over controversial military detention
provisions.
The National Defense Authorization Act
passed Thursday by the Senate contains a section that spells out the
military's power to detain Americans indefinitely without trial and
mandates military detention for some terrorism suspects.
