Military Tribunal is completely constitutional. It’s just that the perps won’t be able to count on their friendly crooked progressive judge in the courthouse.
I agree that it is completely constitutional, and I agree about the reason-crooked judges. My point was that it could be abused, and likely would be should the Dems ever get back in.
We’ve been under Emergency/State of War for 17 years. Each year, more and more restrictions on the people get passed into law. I find it ironic that what they planned for Patriots will now be used on them. I even take pleasure in that.
However, at some point I’d like to restore normal to the country. I would hate for Military Tribunals to become used increasing more and more often as my grand kids and great grand kids grow up.
No it isn't as JK made plain in his hearing. The Law of Armed Conflict is treaty law.
Also contains this gem: Reprisal. Prosecuting an LOAC violation may not be possible or practical if the enemy who violates the LOAC remains engaged in armed conflict. However, there is no statute of limitations on a war crime. Moreover, the LOAC permits combatants to engage in acts of reprisal to enforce an enemy force’s compliance with LOAC rules. Reprisals are acts in response to LOAC violations. The act of reprisal would be otherwise forbidden if it was not for the prior unlawful act of the enemy. A lawful act of reprisal cannot be the basis for a counter-reprisal.
It is, but one has to be an unlawful combatant or a member of a foreign military organization in conflict with the US to be subject to military tribunal. Committing treason is not enough.
