[quote user="Nick Prout"] Mohammed has confessed to his crimes has requested execution of his captors. The military could have given him and his followers their day in court far from the bright lights of New York. A long drawn out media circus is exactly what Mohammed craves and that is what he is getting. You may disagree, but I consider

[quote user="bobchristenson"] We run the risk of these men getting off on a technicality. We run the risk of these men using the court as a worldwide stage for their poisonous views. We run the risk of intelligence gathering methods being exposed. We run the risk of our own dirty laundry being aired out in public. But if we don't take

[quote user="Clonnie Yearout"] At best our justice system is a slow, clumsy, lumbering giant. It is neither swift nor sure. Perhaps it will perform admirably in trying the terrorists, but if you're wagering on the outcome, bet that it won't -- regardless of the odds. You'll be richer for it.

Bloody gloves, bloody knife, positive DNA evidence, "slow speed chase," tons of motive, opportunity and proof of presence made this trial a slam dunk, right? In rode team Johnnie Cochran with his cutsie poems and race brigade, a media circus like none

[quote user="Marvin Foster"] I don't disagree with any of it, but do share a little concern over the additional "right" these culprits may have in federal court rather than military court. Yes, justice came at Nuremberg..but that was a military court.[/quote] Dear Mr. Marvin, You are absolutely right: it was an international

[quote user="Clonnie Yearout"] I believe that the Sept 11 terrorists should have been tried in the tightly controlled arena of the military court system where their fate would more likely have been decided by their guilt or innocence, not by the skill of their lawyers or the unpredictable nature of American civilian courts.
