Start with the Bill of Rights. Read the part with the words "cruel and unusual punishment".

So Constitutional rights are to be extended to our enemies? Silly me - I thought that was a compact between the citizens and their government here in the U.S.

Does the rest of the BOR apply to terrorists too? How about all the other amendments?

Does AlQueda get their own representation in Congress, or can we consider the Democratic party representation enough?

Of course they will when we bring terrorists like Osama to trial. Our courts have no other basis upon which to conduct a trial.

We've convicted and sentenced plenty of terrorists in our history. These modern scum are no different. Try them and execute them under the law.
