Lt. Col. Geoffrey Corn- Jury Trials Wouldn’t Work
Published on Feb 18, 2015
An argument in favor of military tribunals is the danger civilian jurors would face in deciding major terrorism cases.
Iran went after the wife of the Capt of the USS Vincennes that shotdown Iran Air Flight 655 in 1988. If one looks at the 'arkancide' list, tribunals in Gitmo, televised, sentences carried out there is the only way to go. All are unlawful combatants in this. Take the trash to Cuba.
