2 Study Guides addressing specific issues of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 [NDAA 2012], recently in the news re: Sections 1021 and 1022; + AUMF/Authorization for Use of Military Force, Writ of Habeas Corpus concerns and such. Sidenote excerpt from that Wikipedia source: Mother Jones wrote that the Act "is the first concrete gesture Congress has made towards turning the homeland into the battlefield"
Are the detainment provisions of the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act serious?
Yes they are.
This is a complicated area, and there has been a lot of word-fudging in spinning this subject. So bear with me as we take things step by step.
* The U.S. Constitution generally guarantees the “Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus.” The writ of habeas corpus is a court order a prisoner can obtain requiring the jailer to come into court and justify his detention of the prisoner. It is a traditional way in which those held can demand a fair trial by jury in a civilian court. The writ of habeas corpus is a treasured part of our traditional liberty. Belief that the British were infringing it was one cause of the American Revolution. (The writ is called a “privilege” rather than a “right” because it is a creation of the legal system rather than a natural right, like the right to free speech.)
* By the Constitution’s original meaning, the privilege of habeas corpus is guaranteed to all those in “allegiance” to the United States. “Allegiance” is an old technical legal term that includes both citizens and aliens legally in the country.

Special guest: Shawn Ozbun, PANDA Activist
PANDA (People Against the NDAA) is the largest organization in the United States combating indefinite detention without charge or trial. We were founded on January 29th, 2012 to combat one of the most dangerous laws ever passed. The 2012 National Defense Authorization Act, or NDAA, authorized the indefinite detention of any person around the world, including American citizens, without a charge and without a trial. (Oh, did we mention Americans can be put in military prison under the NDAA?!)
The 2012 NDAA, Sections 1021 and 1022, authorizes the indefinite military detention, without charge or trial, of any person, including an American citizen, and applies the “Law of War,” to U.S. soil, making the United States legally a battlefield.
With the 2017 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) coming up for a vote in Congress as soon as next month [Note: Signed into law by President Barack Obama on 23 December 2016 - Wikipedia Ref.], now is a good time to revisit the history of the 2012 NDAA’s indefinite detention powers, and based on that history, why Congress should seriously think about repealing them.
The authority underpinning the detention provisions of the 2012 NDAA is in the claim that the laws of war can be applied to American citizens in the United States. It is crucial, therefore, to any true understanding of these provisions that we revisit the two times the laws of war were applied to American citizens in our past [Note: 1. the U.S. "Civil War" and 2. the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) after the events of September 11th, 2001], and then retrace how the War on Terror has brought the laws of war to bear on American citizens again.
[2 sidenotes regarding the U.S. "Civil War" from:
1. a lewrockwell.com article: "it was Secretary of State, William Seward, who signed the executive orders suspending the right of habeas corpus throughout the war, when it should normally have been the President", i.e. Lincoln.
2. the comment section at a zerohedge.com article: EOs/Executive Orders are a function of Lincoln creating them (dictatorially) when (reminiscing or something as if) there was no longer a quorum in Congress because the South (had) left. Lincoln declares an emergency and creates EOs. Every two years the President has to update the emergency in order to continue with EOs. Emergency War Powers Act. Do you wonder why they always want to be in a state of "war". Even their "wars" are unconstitutional. Precedent does not override the Constitution.]
PANDA provides the public with a framework they can use to invoke change by means of local legislation to effectively repeal the militarized overreach of the federal government into our state, as well as our local communities. ... PANDA focuses on a singular issue, but Johnson sees opportunities to expand its model to other activist issues. His new initiative, Solutions Institute, does just that. ... To learn more or to request the services of the Solutions Institute, visit their website at Solutions-Institute.org. Although they are currently offering their services at no charge, donations are welcomed.
Plato’s Republic contains a passage that is often paraphrased as “the penalty for not participating in politics is to be governed by your inferiors.” If good men and women can’t run for office, then activism for honest government is the next best thing.
