Fox News' resident lawyer said this afternoon that if war were declared against Afghanistan & the Taliban that anyone caught in this country aiding & abetting while in civilian dress could be tried by the military, convicted, and summarily executed (meaning at sunrise the following day). ALL CONSTITUTIONALLY !! WHERE IS THE WAR DECLARATION ??? WE ARE AT WAR RIGHT?? THE TWIN TOWERS WAS AN ACT OF WAR RIGHT ??? HUNT THESE FILTHY DOGS DOWN & KILL THEM !!!!!

No, I don't think he said trial. He said if they were known to be an enemy they could be shot on the spot. Just like any war when you spot an enemy.

>> if war were declared<<

Congress also has the power to define and punish "Offences against the law of Nations", which terrorism certainly is.
