Hello jillian, here is the question, are Military Tribunals considered due process. in my mind because of the long history of case law in such matters it is. Also as you know, in Article 131 of the Geneva Convention POW's are to tried by the detaining military power. So again Military Tribinals are wholly consistant with that as well as was the case with the International Military Tribunals for those at end of WW2. In my opinion, I see nothing at all wrong with having such trials in a Military setting and as such do not eleminate the constitution when it comes to such trials.
Hi Navy. My problem is less their thinking that military tribunals give them due process, it's their claim that giving them trials is somehow wrong. These same people think that it would have been a travesty to give these people
Why they assume that U.S. citizens haven't been detained at Gitmo when there's been absolutely no accountability is beyond me. These are the same people who won't take an H1N1 vaccine because they "don't trust their governement" since Glen Beck told them not to. But they'll trust their government with coerced confessions and detention without charges?
Something is really butt backward in these people...
not you... you aren't outraged that there's going to be a trial... you just think a military tribunal would have been at least equally appropriate, if i'm reading you correctly.
I find these people who are hoping for another terrorist attack on this country or an acquittal of people who crashed planes into NYC just for their own political gain to be incomprehensible. To me they're sick and anti-American.
