i realize we can get them once we know what they did, like Z(whatever). but Atta (or the LAX bomber), all you know he has ties to al queda. are you assuming he'll tell you about the plan and the guys helping him? have the courage of your convictions. you believe the protection of rights requires we let him go. that isn't a terrible position, but don't pretend it isn't what you're saying.
Hell Jed Bartlett killed a guy who he knew was a terrorist. Are you going on record as disagreeing with him?

Why are you fighting so hard to stay so wrong? Both of them: (i) conspired to aid/ engage in terrorism; (ii) entered or attempted to enter the United States under false pretenses in aid of the afroementioned conspiracy; (iii) provided personal services in aid of said conspiracy; and (iv) did so knowing and with intent that said conspiracy result in acts of terrorism and/or harm to persons or property within the United States.
All that aside, both of them were on temporary visas. We didn't actually need to arrest them. We could have simply revoked their visas and put them on a plane to somewhere the government would be very happy to see them.
