Giving them a military trial would elevate the dirt bags to a status they don't deserve. They should be treated like low-life muggers and rapist.

They should be tried by a jury of ordinary Americans and then...EXECUTED like the common criminals they are.

BS!

They are not ordinary criminals.

They are war criminals and enemy combatants. And should be treated as such in the war Al Queda and Osama Bin Laden and Islamic Jihadists have declared on America.

They do not deserve the rights of Americans. But that is what you and Obama want to give them as a gift for attacking America.

How is an attack on the Pentagon a civilian crime?
It isn’t.

Obama and terrorist sympathizer Eric Holder are wrong, but then Obama did say in his book, when the political winds shift, he would stand Muslim.

You couldn't be more wrong with this thinking. Affording them a civilian trial automatically bestows upon them Constitutional rights only American citizens are privy to. This means all information extracted from them through water boarding may very well be thrown out because it is considered torture by those in power. The United States will be forced to divulge classified information as to how interrogations were conducted. Doing so can cause serious damage to our national security. The terrorists mere presence in NYC will be a tremendous security risk. All these risks could be avoided with a military tribunal at GITMO.

They are worse than rapists and muggers. They are enemy combatants. The former two do not seek destruction of he United States. The latter is does seek to destroy the U.S. The latter is at war with the U.S.

The whole purpose of this travesty is to put the U.S. on trial before the world. BO and his fellow socialists despise the U.S. and want to show how evil American is by exposing all the methods used to extract information. it will forever weaken our defenses against terrorists and and only embolden the enemy.

You must be joking! They are not ordinary criminals and as such do not deserve any constitutional rights.

They are war criminals and enemy combatants and should be tried by military tribunal.

“low-life muggers and rapist”

Enemy combatants are on the same plane as muggers and rapists? They should be afforded the same rights as American citizens? Muggers and rapists rarely receive the death penalty. Using your logic, they should get a few years in prison and be released.

These are WAR CRIMINALS!! They do not belong in a civil trial. They are foreigners who harmed Americans in an ACT OF WAR.
