Fox News Online ^ | 1/15/03

[Wolfstar]

Terrorism suspects will be tried by military tribunals

[Wolfstar]

Get ready for massive Leftist howls both here and abroad once these tribunals get under way.

[xzins]

Great news from Afghan/Iraq

(Personally, I think they should count their lucky stars that we didn't let the Afghanis conduct trials for them.)

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Who's going to tell them?

[LibWhacker]

YES!!!

[Batrachian]

Right. Liberals having a cow alert!

Why do they always feel a need to defend our enemies? Because birds of a feather flock together.

[oceanview]

for these guys like KSM et al, this is a mere formality. their deals have been set long ago, based on what information they weere willing to provide. the outcome of these tribunals will not change that.

[mplsconservative]

This fantastic news! They'll be sheikhing in their booties now!

Now we have a place to use the air guns banned from cattle slaughter houses.

[Ukiapah Heep]

I agree. A fair hanging after a fair trial.

Nah, too messy and a waste of ammunition. Ropes are reusable and can be adjusted according to the perp-- humane neck breaking long-drops for the petty killers and slow strangling short-drops for the vicious ones.

[SAMWolf]

Good!!

It would look better all fix'd up like the two Saddamites.

Hey, I wonder how those guys are doing right now?

[The Mayor]

Good!!

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Gitmo, good.

Intel, bump!

The noose is also ecologically friendly, energy efficient, and as you said it's reuseable. There is also a historical association of dishonor for those hanged; traitors, rebels, spies, and common criminals usually got the gallows.
The Royal Navy wouldn't use either the short or long drop, the condemned were run up to a yardarm from the deck, strangling slowly.
Unfortunately for those of us with a traditionalist bent I think the military now would use lethal injection in all but a situation of wartime battlefield summary trial and execution.
