I never used that word, I never called anyone beneath me. But if they are not citizens then no, they do not receive the same protections as American citizens. That exists across the spectrum of reality. American citizens can vote, non Americans cannot vote. Americans can get U.S. passports, in most cases non Americans can't. And Americans are exempt (mostly) from enhanced interrogation. In many cases non Americans aren't. Like I said these things happened during my time in service under three Presidents, two from our party, and Shrub. You act like this is happening in some moral vacuum, this has been and remains standard policy for the military. I don't hate anyone that crossed my path, but if they are enemy, then I needed to break them and get what they knew.
