Because we are forgetting this is a WAR! In a WAR there is an ENEMY. When the ENEMY is captured, he becomes a prisioner of WAR, and thus is tried as a WAR criminal. Why do we insist on giving these WAR CRIMINALS civilian rights? How can we effectivly fight a WAR, when we play political games? Hell, they should be lucky they even get a trial, be it a military tribunal or not. When a soldier gets captured over there. Off with the head!!
