Read Bernard Lewis work "The Assassins" to get a better handle on the insertion technique of radical Islamic sects in history. Patient placement of loyal converts awaiting the moment to act was the signature of the Ismaili/Naziri cutthroats who terrorized 13th century MidEast. Osama and the Wahabi Kharijite murderers no doubt are aware of this history.

That's nice. After the *jury* finds them guilty, I'm ok with hanging them.

I agree with you for the most part, but I'd be satisfied if there were merely more judicial oversight. If a judge says that a certain person is a threat to national security and that a speedy trial would exacerbate that threat, I'd be willing to let the trial be delayed - but only for as long as the judge allowed. I sometimes find it hard to think that I'm even writing these words, but these are extraordinary times we live in, and these are extraordinary threats. Despite that, I'm not comfortable with an executive branch which thinks that it can hold anybody without any judicial say in the matter.
