First no more ‘War on Terror’, now “enemy combatant” term

That muslim faith of Obama is still coming home to roost! In what has become the “Nation of Cowards” per Eric Holder, we can no longer call fighting terrorists “The war on Terror”. Now comes word from the Washington Post that the Hussein Obama administration will no longer be describing Gitmo detainees as “Enemy combatants”. I think Holder may be actually right. This country under the dictatorship of Hussein Obama is becoming a Nation of Cowards!

The Obama Administration today dropped the term “enemy combatant” to describe those held at the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and increased the legal threshold needed to detain them.

The Justice Department disclosed the move in a court filing in response to a federal judge’s order seeking a definition of the term “enemy combatant.”

Judges have said the definition will play a key role in determining whether the government has justified the confinement of scores of detainees who are challenging their status in U.S. District Court.

In a break with the Bush Administration’s policies, the Justice Department said it would only seek to detain those who “substantially supported” the Taliban, Al Qaeda or associated forces or participated in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. The Bush Administration had argued it could detain those who provided support to those groups and others “engaged in hostilities” against the United States and its allies.
