re: #66 Sharmuta

Is there something wrong with military tribunals?

Military tribunals are now “OK” because Al Nashiri is getting one. See how that works? You condemn a process as a violation of our due process clause and a violation of human rights to boot, then you co opt that process discreetly when it suits you. Meanwhile you will parade the enemy in an armed convoy through Manhattan and have a trial at the scene of the crime where the prospect of empaneling a neutral jury is hard to imagine.
