ThoughtRogue: Has the left gone insane? (or were they already there?) Granting Jihadist terrorist combatants MY civil rights under our U.S. Constitution is verging on insane. And then, trying them in American civilian courts, with all the rules of discovery and evidence, and so on, takes the cake, doesn’t it?
A few Questions which “Progressives” must answer satisfactorily in this case before trying KSM and his band of cohorts in New York City:
- When did OBL and fellow Islamo-fascist terrorists sign on to the Geneva Convention?
- What’s wrong exactly with Military Tribunals for these Jihadi wraiths, which have been used successfully since our Revolutionary War? (and have recently been successfully vetted by the Supreme Court and Congress)
- Why exactly can’t Leftists understand the simple difference between Militant acts of War, and Civil Crimes?
- Were the horrific attacks on New York and Washington, D.C. really just one great mugging by poor Islamists?
- In selecting his trial’s jury, who exactly will be KSM’s “Peers”? Can you say, OJ?
- Do we really want the standard of Justice for those who commit Acts of War against us, to gladly let 9 out of 10 Jihadists go free, lest one of them be imperfectly condemned?
- Isn’t this simply a Show Trial by the Obamunists, which will drag-on magically until just before the 2012 election, really their strategy to finally put Bush & Company on trial for their alleged plethora of “crimes” against Jihadists?
