Holder: Pakistani Taliban helped direct Times Square plot

Faisal Shahzad, a man likely connected with the Pakistani Taliban, is suspected of being part of the failed Times Square bombing. New evidence suggests that the Taliban helped direct, facilitate, and finance the car bombing. Shahzad allegedly tried--but failed--to set off a car bomb in Times Square. Two days later he was arrested while trying to fly out of New York. This is the second failed terrorist attack in the past six months. According to John Brennan, the assistant to the president for counterterrorism and homeland security, any U.S. counterterroism efforts have detered terrorist groups from launching successful attacks.

Despite critics denouncing Obama for reading alleged terrorists the Miranda rights, I think he is right to do that. If they are legal American citizens they should have the same chance to know their rights as anyone else regardless of what they have done. NOT reading them their rights wouldn't necessarily guarantee a truthful response.
