(No matter how evil the government says those whom it has detained may be, they have the same natural rights as you and I do, and that includes the right to a fair trial before a jury here in the U.S. These are the very American values for which we have shed generations of blood, and which make us happily unique in all the world.)

(Let me see if I have this right...You want these people captured and then immediately turned over to their own countries to deal with so we don't have to pay taxes on them?)

~They have no right to OUR money, period.~


A number of them may just disagree, particularly those held for years who were innocent and may end up suing you.

That is as ridiculous as holding people indefinitely.
