You send in Special Forces to extract a terrorist. He resists or gives attitude so the SEAL in this case punches the terrorist. Would the terrorist or the public prefer the SEAL drew a weapon and kill him instead? Special Forces are highly trained members of the military; they can perform many missions but they are NOT law enforcement. You send soldiers, Marines, sailors or airmen in when you want things broken and people killed. If you want people to be arrested in accordance with their Miranda rights, send in a law enforcement officer. Getting the cop into to a war zone might be a little tricky though, they probably lack the training to survive getting to the target and back out. Instead of congratulating the SEAL team for getting both the terrorist and themselves out alive, we are going to put them on trial for assault. We are doomed.
