They are not sufficient because they are closed and secretive. The entire point of this trial is not only to bring KSM to justice, but to send a message to the world that we are a nation of laws. That we are morally superior to the terrorists. That our war against terror is a just war because we are right and they are wrong.

Do you really think that after 236 years of constitutional freedom we still need to send a “message” to the world that we are a nation of laws? Also which nations do we need to send that message to - Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Syria, the Sudan?
