Even drivers for Osama Bin Laden are entitled to some due process under the Geneva Convention.

The guilt by association is not for Hamdan. If he truly did aid Bin Laden, and that is proven in a court of law, then he should be punished.

The guilt-by-association fallacy was in saying that "Al Queda agrees," as though that invalidates my argument. (Although I suspect Al Queda doesn't particularly care whether or not we give them trials. They see themselves as Islamic martyrs. They don't care if they get caught. No, trials are to maintain our own moral superiority.)

They are only entitled to die. I despise their defenders who spit on those Americans who died on September 11, 2001.

You sound like a Democrat. If Bin Laden did it, and if it is proven in a court of law ... You are corrupt.

Someone has to make alQaeda's case for them.

Actually, no...why don't you explain the particular rule regarding illegal combatants?

Do you really know what the Geneva Convention says? I suggest you re-read it. Yes, I serve, I have an opinion.

Help me sort this out, genius. Under which nation's flag did Hambreath serve bin Laden, and in which army's uniform? Geneva Conventions rights, my arse.
