I find it interesting that so many who are quick to condemn the NeoCon idealism about spreading democracy are so quick to want to provide all the rights and protections of the Constitution of the United States to every person on the planet and then pick and choose crimes that are committed overseas against persons/property overseas and say that we are obligated to prosecute them (like the murder of Danny Pearl).

So I am now seeing the same idealist justifications that were offered for liberating Iraq are now given for handing KSM not only the the rights but the procedure that anyone situated in the US would get if s/he were accused of petty theft.
