The 9/11 Terrorists Should Deserve A Fair Trial
Should they deserve a trial even after what they did to our country?

Yes they deserve a fair trial, but we already know what the outcome will be. If its a fair trial, we will withhold justice against these terrorists. Since they are terrorists, we know they deserve a severe punishment for the destruction against our land and people.

It’s not about what they deserve; the point is that we as Americans deserve to stay true to one of our basic self evident truths. And that is equality in the eyes of the law.

Fairness is good. They should get such a trial, if ever they are taken.

Yes. Everyone Regardless Of Crime. Deserves a fair trial. Not only is it in the Bill of Rights, but it has it's roots in Habeus Corpus which is the very foundation of our leagal system. How would we know we had the right people? Just because Bush says so? Look what trusting this administration has lied about--lied us into a war for oil. That is a fact.

All alleged criminals should get fair trials, even George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, the real perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks.

As for the pathetic patsies they've rounded up and tortured into making some bogus confession, it is no longer possible for them to receive a fair trial, at least in America. The kangaroo court they've dreamed up to carry out these sinister show trials, right in time to boost the Republicans in the upcoming election, can provide nothing but a travesty of justice.

Torture has been used to extract confessions. That "evidence" will be presented at trial. The prisoners have been subjected to gross human rights violations, denied access to a lawyer and subjected to fake executions.

Everyone deserves a fair trial, it is a human right and these people are still human. Besides, you speak like we know they are guilty before the trial, if that is true then what is the trial for?

Since we cannot be 100% these people are guilty we need a fair trial to determine this. Once that's done then treat them like prisoners of war or something, but becoming judge, jury and executioner is very dangerous.

I think in the war against terrorism anything goes, these people don't think twice about killing women and children, so for me they give up their right to be treated within the rules.

 'These people' is an interesting phrase. How do you decide who is one of 'these people'? Guess? No you have a trial, weigh the evidence, and convict if there is any proof.

They are not American citizens and are basically prisoners of war. They do have the right to one but i doubt the government really cares about that and anybody who goes against the government on that point they would be labeled as a traitor or terrorist lover.
