How about these then (okay not a true confession)

[/QUOTE]Fine. Take 30 seconds and put those words in front of an IMPARTIAL JUDICIAL BODY and let them find him guilty. It's a PROCESS.



Again, I reiterate that the problem here is that the Admin and Justice Dept are being obtuse about the whole military tribunal thing. Ain't no one getting a damned trial until they finally bludgeon through a military tribunal plan that the courts will sign off on...... And that could take a few more years.
[/QUOTE]I'm not disagreeing about the need for a trial - I never have. I also agree about it being a process. That was the point of my first point in the trilogy. And I do agree that Bush and Rummy have played just a tad bit fast and loose with the rules (Does THAT shock you?) But the court system is working it out. Isn't that what it's supposed to do? Isn't that WHY folks like Hamdan and Hamdi are able to bring their cases before SCOTUS?

I'm not trying to TRY his case here. I simply listed the charges against him in an attempt to clarify what crimes he has and has not been charged with. It's obvious that different people will interpret those charges in different ways. Fine.

Sent you a PM.
