and those who are guilty of just fighting against us in a legitimate war (POWs) treat according to the Geneva Conventions

You joined up just to legitimize AQ and infer that we deserved 9-11? NB4ZOT

I didn't say I support Al-Qaeda and infer we deserved 9/11? Were did you read that? I said that I thought SCOTUS was correct in ruling the President of the United States does not have unlimited authority to suspend our rule of law and due process rights, and where this principle is tested best is how we treat those we capture.

If they're Al-Qaeda, prove it in a court of law, throw them in a prison if GUILTY, and throw away the key. let them rot in Jail

If they're regular POWs from Afghanistan and Iraq (NOT Al-Qaeda), hold them as stipulated by the Geneva Conventions OR how other civilized Western nations do it, then release them when the conflict with Afghanistan and Iraq is over.

Simple procedures that would make us actually fulfill our stated values better (rather than say we stand for democracy but look the other way when we feel like it), and that would do the job excellently to prosecute these wars and the war on terrorism better.

Where did I say I align myself with Al-Qaeda and 9/11 in those statements?
