re: #687 SanFranciscoZionist

No, I’m arguing that we have the means to try him in a civilian court, as has become common practice with terror suspects apprehended on U.S. soil, and that I think we should continue with that practice.

We also have the means to hold him as a military detainee. After Richard Reid we decided we needed a better way to deal with some of these people, hence the whole Padilla situation. My only point is that these issues should be dealt with on a case by case basis and in this case the panty bomber likely has info we need that we cannot get in a civilian arena.
