Saudis plan indefinte detention for hardcore terrorist

Arab News:

Forty-two of the most “hard core” of the 330 Al-Qaeda militants will not be released even after they serve out their time.

“The authorities will not release many of the hard-core militants because of their complicity in acts of terrorism, which were proved by the courts,” said Justice Ministry spokesman Abdullah Al-Sadhan at a news conference in Riyadh. He was accompanied by Ministry of Information spokesman Abdulrahman Al-Hazza.

Al-Sadhan said all of the convicts “can appeal against the verdict of the special Saudi courts.” The officials were addressing concerns expressed by some human rights advocates that these men have not received adequate legal counsel.

I think the Saudis recognize that these terrorist will remain at war with us after they finish any sentence they have been given and there for they should be held until the war is over with. That makes immanent sense to anyone who is not a terrorist rights wacko. It is the ways wars or fought and it avoids the confusion with lawfare that has enveloped much of the left around the world.
