At anyrate our standard judicial process that we would use for American citizens for civil/criminal is completely different then when it comes to terrorists hence Gitmo and Tribunals.

Linky please because the only link I see is the patriot act being applied to corrupt city officals who were bought by a titty bar, drug runners and child pornographers. A corrupt official isn't a terrorist, a drug runner isn't a terrorist and a child pornographer isn't a terrorist.
But since we don't like them, we can change the definition of terrorist to a bad person and use the Patriot Act to imprison anyone we don't like without that pesky due process thing getting in the way.
