Introduction War is not an easy environment to navigate through. The United States has always been the pillar for ethical behavior and following protocol. After the attack on the U.S. on September 11, 2001, the policies created by the President’s Administration and the top U.S. military officials undermined that pillar and created an opposing international view that the U.S. is a harsh and abusive state. Although no Constitutional rights were violated, there were Geneva Convention rights that the detainees had were violated by U.S. military personnel.
United States Constitution Constitutional protection and rights given by the forefathers of this country are given only to U.S. persons. There are certain requirements that a person has to meet in order to qualify as a U.S. person. Those people that qualify would include:
U.S. Citizens are natural born and have a birth certificate/social security card.
Permanent Resident Alien (PRA) of the U.S. is foreign born person who went through the process and received a green card. Eventually, they will receive full citizenship if the process is followed properly.
U.S. Corporation that was incorporated in the U.S. and not controlled by some sort of foreign government. A corporation is formed by filing for Articles of Incorporation. This document makes them a legal being in the eyes of the government.
