Another defense of the DOJ’s post-9/11 roundup

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 16, 2005 12:48 PM

Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy has a great column in National Review Online defending the Justice Department’s actions in the immediate aftermath of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. He concludes:

The post-9/11 detentions were lawful, ethical, strategically appropriate, and involved an infinitesimal portion of the Muslim population in the United States. To have conducted the investigation in any other manner would have been grossly irresponsible. Secretary-designate Chertoff’s involvement in that effort is a further credit to his distinguished legacy of service to the United States.

Damn straight.
