In 2002, the George W. Bush administration issued the Torture Memos which argued for a narrow definition of torture under U.S. law. They included granting the CIA authority to use “enhanced interrogation techniques” on enemy combatants. The techniques included waterboarding subjection to extreme cold and confinement in small boxes.

some rights, but they aren't us citizens
@96ML6DJWomen’s Equality3yrs3Y
yes and no. i think we should do background checks and learn more about the individual
@96DTNQ63yrs3Y
depending on the crimes they are suspected to have commited, and whether there is strong evidence against them
@96BG4S83yrs3Y
It is my belief that no public vote will change what happens within the more classified doings of the CIA.
@95WCV793yrs3Y
this makes me too sad to answer
@95JBF8V3yrs3Y
If there is undeniable proof they committed the acts than no
@94HBMPH3yrs3Y
Depending on the Terroism
@93JRMSF3yrs3Y
Internationally recognized rights by the UN should be recognized.
@8ZWG3PV3yrs3Y
If no proven threat, then yes.
@8V5Q6PQ4yrs4Y
yes, If they become U.S citizens and pay taxes.
@8TF66QW4yrs4Y
If they are proven to not be terrorists, then yeah
@8S3KG7Q4yrs4Y
They should be given a fair trial but not immediate rights due to their terrorism convictions.
@8RGC4SZ4yrs4Y
Although they deserve human rights and a right to a trial, they should have the rights they are given by their country of origin.
@8QR2PPGProgressive4yrs4Y
It depends on the severity and death count of the act.
@8QLHD3W4yrs4Y
Yes but if proven that they deserve rights and wont be a future threat
@8QBDNNQ4yrs4Y
If for sure guilty, no. If not proven guilty, yes, as if someone is innocent, they are innocent until proven guilty. I also think it depends on the seriousness of the crime.
@8PDB7H95yrs5Y
Yes, but only after extensive research to confirm they are not a terrorist
@8PD5R8Z5yrs5Y
if they were proven innocent
@8P6HK9H5yrs5Y
no, they still have basic human right
@8L8SZLN5yrs5Y
If they are being held in America, going through American court systems, I believe they should be given constitutional rights.
@8HQPBR25yrs5Y
everyone should be given rights, if there is evidence that the terrorist is one, a trial should be held
@8DNMCT75yrs5Y
yes, but no excessive torture interrogation techniques
@9CCTV622yrs2Y
Bad wording on question, not understanding
@99GNHBY2yrs2Y
No, If clear and present danger is established
@98ZJJ3H2yrs2Y
Whilst most suspects should be treated properly those who are known terrorists even if not proven in court should have certain privileges revoked but definitely still avoid things like torture.
@98LYX6T2yrs2Y
If they are to be tried on US soil, then they should be given the rights afforded to them under the constitution
@98K3HMH2yrs2Y
Yes, but give them a trial to see if they were and actual terrorist
@98BBR9Y2yrs2Y
terrorists should recieve fair trail and be treated as humans but if guilty, adequete punishment is deserved.
@97H2JYF3yrs3Y
If they are being tried in US courts then yes, it is the law of our land.
@97FK4L93yrs3Y
It is entirely situational
@974D8XP3yrs3Y
They should be given a fair trial in federal court or not given constitutional rights depending on the severity of their actions.
