I have been confused and frustrated, at how it was that this dude is getting a civilian trial in a criminal court. Why is he not getting a military tribunal trial?

Attacks on our embassies or consulates are acts of war. As such, any justice should be military justice. Such as happened at Nuremburg, where we carried out military tribunals.

So what am I missing? why does this dude get Miranda rights and all the rest of it, for committing an act of war against America?????

If he gets the same rights as any US citizen, how come he isn't out on bail yet?

He has a right to trial by a jury of his "peers", but aren't his peers in Benghazi, not America?

Come to think of it, why is he being tried in America at all? He has committed no crimes here, shouldn't he be in a court where the alleged crime was committed?
