from the 2011 Senate video 'more info':
"EVEN IF HE DOES, *Congress has a supermajority on this, which overrides a veto. That's why we have only a few days to speak up to Congress before the President signs NDAA Section 1031, permitting citizen imprisonment without evidence or a trial. Congress plans to give it to him to sign by Dec 9. But if we act urgently to raise awareness among our friends, family, and colleagues, we can still prevent this. Here is what we can do:
1) Americans must know about this to stop it. Urgently pass this petition as widely as possible: http://www.change.org/petitions/stop-ndaa-section-1031-citizen-imprisonment-l... - Contact the media by any means available to you. ZERO news stories have covered this Chairman Levin clip yet!
2) Congress can still block the law before December 9. Write and call your Representative and Senator telling them to stop NDAA Section 1031.
Contact your Representative: http://writerep.house.gov/writerep/
Contact your Senator: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm
3) Write and call the White House to tell the President you won't sit by and watch NDAA Section 1031 become law: http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/submit-questions-and-comments
4) Stay smart -- To slow down journalists and concerned citizens, it appears Section 1032 was deliberately crafted to distract from Section 1031. However, section 1032 is NOT the citizen imprisonment law. Disturbingly, this confusion is helping Section 1031 to slip by the American people. Do NOT fall for the misdirection, stay informed and urgently work to stop NDAA Section 1031."
UPDATE - 12/12/11- '
"United For Peace and Justice has sent an urgent call saying the Senate and House versions of the bill were reconciled this weekend, with a final version expected either today or tomorrow. Once complete, the House and Senate will be asked to vote on it very quickly. There is no time to waste!
Let your Senators and Representatives know that you are opposed to the 2012 Defense Authorization bill because it imperils civil liberties, continues an endless war in Afghanistan and elsewhere, wastes billions of dollars that 99% of Americans need for a more secure life here at home. "

It's a good time to review Obama's [2009] speech on Preventative 'Prolonged Detention'; the whole thing is absurd but this part really tells a lot, Obama said:
"In our Constitutional system, prolonged detention should not be the decision of any one man. If and when we determine that the United States must hold individuals to keep them from carrying out an act of war, we will do so within a system that involves judicial and congressional oversight. So going forward, my administration will work with Congress to develop an appropriate legal regime so that our efforts are consistent with our values and our Constitution"--

read/track Bill of TREASON
"The magic words which define this Orwellian doublespeak legalese are the phrases: ‘substantially supports’ and ‘associated forces.’
Nowhere in this herculean piece of legislation do we find any concrete criterion clearly establishing the definition of …’substantial support’ or ‘associated forces.’ The fact that this bill was written by Carl Levin, an acknowleged civil rights attorney, with language so vague, constitutes what can only be described as premeditated fraud–and serves as poignant testimony to the cowardly and treasonous nature of the US Senate in 2011. It is ironic that the majority of senators are attorneys who would never sign on to the flimsy and vague criterion they have imposed on everyone else."
Op-Ed: Does US Senate Commit Treason with NDAA Bill?
December 7, 2011 4:45 pm
http://www.ukprogressive.co.uk/op-ed-does-us-senate-commit-treason-with-ndaa-bill/article16137.html
Just a few thoughts regarding the NDAA amendments on the issue of indefinite detainment of US citizens. Lawmakers should have NO hesitation in clarifying the issue, apparently they do. Some surprising sources say the bill no longer authorizes the indefinite military detention of Americans captured in the US. I believe that is incorrect and here's why,
The Feinstein amendment would have banned indefinite detention of US citizens by US government, it was clear language but it was not approved (45-55). The Senate came up with and passed a "compromised amendment" that some say will protect due process; I do not agree. The compromised amendment says [2012] NDAA should not be construed to affect 'existing law' relating to the detention of United States citizens. Rather than clarify the issue, Congress put the issue on 'existing law'. Don't they make laws?
So here's the problem. Lower courts are conflicting and SCOTUS hasn't ruled on the issue as in the case of Jose Padilla (see Rumsfeld v. Padilla). Jose Padilla, a US citizen that was captured INSIDE the US and was held in military prison for years, without charge, after George W Bush declared him an 'enemy combatant'. The Supreme Court of the United States took the case of Rumsfeld v. Padilla to decide the question of whether Congress's Authorization for Use of Military Force authorized the President to detain a U.S. citizen, but SCOTUS never ruled on the issue, they just said the case was improperly filed. There is also the 1940s case where a US citizen was prosecuted by the military and executed; SCOTUS said it was legitimate. So recent actions or existing law doesn't look so good. Liberty, whether it's the SCOTUS-approved-military-killing-of-citizen or the conflicting lower court cases... I'm not sure what existing law are they referring to because SCOTUS never ruled on Padilla which happened because POTUS ignored the Non-Detention Act (see 'References' here). Why the hell can't they just clarify the law? They are lawmakers! Oh yeah, the military state is the agenda.
I can't see any protection from the 'comprised amendment' so if anyone can assure me otherwise, please do. I'd love to be wrong on this! Bottom line, this was their opportunity to clarify citizens are immune to indefinite detention or military prosecution, THAT IS THEIR JOB, and they blew it. Obama and the Senate refuse to make it clear. We should look at what lawmakers do as opposed to what they say, as it has been made clear time after time that they do not follow the Rule of Law. So we're left with the Jose Padilla case, an infinite loophole at best, and DUE PROCESS IS NOT PROTECTED. It is too easy to say indefinite detention does not apply to US citizens, or that US citizen has the Right to civilian court, but they won't! It begs the question,
WHY are federal lawmakers so hell bent on not protecting our most basic Rights and overturning the Constitution?
Every American should be very concerned when federal lawmakers will not clarify the law relating to indefinite detention of US citizens!
Remember, Hitler's Germany made laws to remove Human Rights of Jews... before he made laws to imprison them... before he killed them. The globalist agenda keeps marching towards the New World Order and they're taking big steps with this treasonous bill! I know a lot of our wonderful military men and women will not obey such awful orders that could be coming our way (military detainment of citizens isn't for lone wolves), but should we really leave it to them to face court martial? Or should we OCCUPY OUR RIGHTS? NOW! GO to DC before this bill becomes law! Demand clear language to exclude US citizens from detention by military, indefinite or otherwise! The House has already approved it but the House and Senate have to combine the two bills.

To the question on "EXISTING LAW" in NDAA amendment 1456, Jose Padilla, a US citizen, captured in US, held for almost 4 years by military without charge, Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals:
p.6 "We conclude that the President does possess authority pursuant to the Authorization for Use of Military Force Joint Resolution enacted by Congress in the wake of the attacks on the United States of September, 11, 2001. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is reversed."p.8 "The district court subsequently held that the President lacks the authority to detain Padilla, id. at 180-81, that Padilla's detention is in violation of the Constitution and laws of the United States, id., and that Padilla therefore must either be criminally charged or released."
