AP/yahoo:

"the Bush administration claimed the president has the wartime authority to send the military into any U.S. neighborhood, capture a citizen and hold him in prison without charge, indefinitely."

Wikipedia:

"..Unlike other foreigners, al-Marri was not transported to the Guantanamo Bay...."

So...is or is not al-Marri a citizen? One of these two sources is botched.

According to CBS, June 23, 2003, al-Marri is a citizen of Qatar, not the US.

So AP, as is their frequent practice, probably got their Bush-hating America-despising prejudices in the way of doing their job.
