my goodness, thanks for the reminder about the gold fringed flag. I had forgotten all about that. However, as they have declared war on us, why are military trials not just fine for the terrorists? They are fine for the military, why not for the terrorist jihad warriors?

I could be wrong about this but here's my take on it. I think it has something to do with an oath the terrorists swear to when being tried in a court. Furthermore, the U.S. courts does not have jurisdiction over these terrorists. They would have to be tried in a Muslim court.
