This Counterterrorism Section (Subtitle D) of this Bill (H.R. 1540) highlights The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012. This Section (Subtitle D) is considered the most controversial because of its “Detainee” Procedures for those classified as a Domestic or International Terrorist. This Bill also specifies that Congress affirms the US is engaged in armed conflict with not only al-Qaeda and the Taliban but OTHER ASSOCIATED FORCES that pose a threat to the US and it’s Citizens both domestic & abroad. Note that these armed forces are defined as any “belligerent” Nations, Organizations or Persons engaged in “hostilities” against the US or it’s coalition partners, or who have directly supported armed forces.
