Terrorists now advised of "right to remain silent"?!

Unbelievable. Un-effing-believable.

The Obama administration Justice Department has ordered FBI agents to read Miranda rights to high value foreign suspects detained in Afghanistan.

So now after our brave troops risk death and injury to capture a terror suspect and hand him to the FBI for interrogation, instead of hearing a stern "You better start talkin'!" the terrorist will be advised:
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense.
Just perfect. We catch these terrorists in hope of obtaining valuable information, and now they're told they can shut up and ask for a lawyer, even at government -- taxpayer, really -- expense?!?!

I bet the terrorists are dancing in their caves upon learning this new rule.
