I understand America's paranoia about terrorism, the threat is obviously real but this seems absurd...first of all, it seems doubtful that there are terrorists lurking among the victims and responders to 9-11. If so, it is the responsibility of our security agencies (homeland, FBI etc) to identify and deal with them. Denying them medical treatment is not the American way. Hell, we provide medical treatment to the prisoners at Gitmo and they are terrorists, we provide medical treatment to prisoners including mass murderers, rapists etc....even those on death row. I just don't see the need to link denial of medical treatment to aspects of the criminal justice system.
