comment-questions on liberties/terrorism

How are we to fight Al Queda terrorists currently plotting these attacks without violating their civil liberties (being that due process of law is entirely circumvented by the bullet of a Force Recon sniper)? Clearly everyone agrees that no such liberties should be respected absent the title of American citizenship. How then do we act upon these liberty-less terrorists engaged in phone conversations with domestic, constitutionally protected terrorists? Not listen to half of the conversation?

If the US person is a suspected domestic terrorist, then get a secret warrant from a FISA court and listen in. If time is of the essence then get it 72 hours after you tap the phone and your're fine.

If you don't like the FISA law that protects US persons from baseless survailence, then take your case to the people's representatives on the hill. What you don't do is simply refuse to get a warrant, secretly breaking the law.
