In this edit Allaithy's status was changed from "innocent" to "no longer enemy combatant".
I disagree with this edit. I don't think it is wikipedia policy to collaborate with spin-doctors. The reason DoD spin-doctors chose that term for the men who the CSRTs determined had been innocent, after all, was for the "optics" if they sued for unlawful imprisonment. The term "nlec" implies, incorrectly, that they had once been enemies, and had had a change of heart.
Justice Robertson mocked the DoD's use of this deceptive phrase.
Since Allaithy was innocent, let's say he was innocent, and refrain from doing Karl Rove's dirty work.
Alternatively, we could add a paragraph, or more, whatever was needed, to explain the context of this controversial weasel phrase, and the criticism it has drawn.
Since Al Laithy is unquestionably innocent, I would prefer the simple approach of just saying he was innocent, and avoiding any mention of the deceptive phrase altogether.
