re: #843 SanFranciscoZionist

Can someone explain to me, without hysterics, why this problem did not pose itself in the Moussaoui case? I understand the issue of where they were picked up, but the problems above seem to apply in both cases.

Moussaoui was arrested in the US by the FBI on an immigration violation. He was suspected of intending to commit crimes but there was no evidence that he had already done so, except for immigration violations, thus it was appropriate to try him in a civil court.
