The viewpoint of the writer on John Ashcroft (Attorney General) is basically to point out on the Patriot Act that brought the latest law to prevent the terrorist. One of the Ashcroft opinion on this articles is “Once detained, these lawbreakers are accorded the rights to which they are entitled.” I think the INS plays an important role to conduct as a front line in the border that guard the US from the terrorist threat, but it might give an uncomfortable feeling for foreigner who has nothing to do with the terrorist activity. I have a friend who has a citizenship of Oman, but he is originally from India who immigrated to Oman when he was child. One of the times when he was returning back from vacation to enter the US he has a problem with the immigration due to his citizenship of Oman. Well this situation might happen to a lot for the people who come from Middle East countries who want to enter the US. Another statement that the writer mentioned is “To keep the public informed, we have consistently released criminal documents and redacted Immigration and Naturalization Service document as they have been unsealed. We would violate our own creed, a pillar of justice, if we aside civil liberties in pursuit terrorist.” This statement concluded that any kind of possible actions will be taken by the authorities to avoid any threat from terrorist attacks. It might violate the civil liberties in order to get a full action against the terrorist threat.
The writer view on Anthony D. Romeo, Executive Director of ACLU, was assurance that the Josh Ashcroft and President George W. Bush would not erode civil liberties in oppose to this crisis. One of the examples of that is when Romeo stated that “From establishing military tribunal without limiting judicial oversight, from expanding wiretapping authority while limiting judicial oversight, from…” Recent polls on New York Times and CBS news found that eight out of every ten American believe that the president should consult with Congress first in changing the justice system, not act by executive order in making it. Although the polls show a great support of administration in handling the war against terrorism, they also worry about the balance of liberty versus security. Another point that Romeo mentioned is when the attorney general has suggested that legitimate political dissent in unpatriotic an un-American, got a respond that Ashcroft should learn from the American history in dealing with civil war, civil rights that shows the US is a democracy country that based on the choice of the people of the US not the leader of the country in making new regulation of law.

Romeo supported by the former FBI director William Webster along with other former FBI officials state that “we used good investigative technique and lawful technique, and we did it without all suggestion that we are going to jump all over people private lives, if that is what the current attorney general wants to do, I don’t think we need to go in that direction.” According to this statement, it seems that the former director of FBI disagreeing with the attorney general in the new regulation about the wiretapping. This statement has also received a counter attack from columnist William Safire “deny the rule of law and public trial to those accused of terrorism.” In that article the author also points out that the war against terrorist is very different with previous war that we have where the terrorist suddenly attack the civilians (indirect attack) is really dangerous rather than combat in the war. Also the writer stated that the US is a democracy country that allows freedom of speech for every people in the US to state their opinion about everything. This article is clearly stated the essential point on how important it is to have changed regulation of the homeland securities in order to protect America from any other terrorist attack. The writer seems to have all the essential information in this argument that this argument is valid and unobjectionable/acceptable. However this article or this argument are one of the perfect argument articles I ever read about the government took an immediate responds in many ways, such as: security check point in every major airports, fingerprint recognition for all the foreign people who come to the US. In my opinion, I think the President of the US George W.
