and there's a yellowtimes article linked on fark and the comments on fark about it are really good. Especially the stuff by peter_hook cathaholic corn-bread and a few others.
now personally, I'm thinking they're going to just sit on him for as long as they can to use the same assets that they used to catch him, before giving him his day in civil court.

They need to do to this guy what they did to the eight german saboteurs in 1942.
What's even better, there's a sixty year old Supreme Court precedent for handling this guy in a tribunal rather than a civilian court.

Which is exactly where he belongs.
The guy's a combatant for a foreign military. He's also in violation of the Geneva Convention because he wasn't in uniform when carrying out his duties as a combatant.
Civilian court is not equipped to deal with matters of law regarding war. Tribunals are. That's why they exist.

I would like nothing better than him to get the tribunal but I don't think it'll happen, but that's just me.

I agree that if the guy's a foreign operator, *shikkk* but without due process, how can we be sure?
That's what scares me...

You do realize that we are not in a declared state of war? So I am going to state my opinion that since we are not in a state of war the supreme court rules about enemy combatants do not apply because congress has not declared war. One might ask who we would declare war on? I would say al-qeada, would it be that hard for congress to make a document declaring that? If they did this the constitutional issues of enemy status would be irrelevant. I am a sticker for law, and until we declare war I am not going to support increasing the federal governments powers to hold people.
