I don't know... I thought section 1032 might be the one with the more general provisions, but 1032.a.2 ("COVERED PERSONS") is dependent on 1031's provisions that restrict it to people involved in 9/11 or al-Qaeda.
While the whole idea of indefinitely detaining people without trial is contrary to the principles of the constitution and circumventing due process opens a loophole where it's easy to accuse anyone of al-Qaeda affiliation, the press around this one seems to be disingenuously omitting that aspect of the bill.
I trust the ACLU as a source though, so maybe we are missing something.
