Clinton Defends Trying Terrorism Suspects in Civilian Courts

Just what is wrong with Hillary. These people should be tried in military court. I am glad she is not president. She is much too liberal !

I would like to see some facts to support her statements that civil courts have a higher rate of conviction. I have a hard time beleiving that just reading the newspaper and seeing the light sentences handed out for egregious crimes. I would think the opposite would be true. My cousin the military lawyer says the rules are quite different. Not that I offer an opinion either way. Just an inquiry.

These people are prisoners of war and are not common criminals. They are not citizens, do not have the rights of an American citizen and do not belong in a civilian court. So we must house, at the tax payer expense, this war criminal and they gave hime 20 to life - is he eligible for parole in 20 yrs - does he have the chance to get off for good behavior, will he be educated in our prison systems, does he have to be kept out of general prison population? I hope not - maybe a patriotic convict will save the tax payers some money.

There you have it once again - an obvious show of support for foreign interests over the rights and security of our own. How can anyone see it any differently? It is as plain as the nose on your face. Diplomacy, Peace and Love and Tolerance are great in a fairy tale world but don't work in the real world where people actually want to kill you. Since the beginning of time the only real way to settle a conflict is to get rid of those who conflict with you. The real winner is the last one standing. Diplomacy only temporarily postpones the outcome until somebody else has to deal with it later after it has developed into a more serious issue. Didn't you ever wonder how our enemies do so well against us? It is because they have only one rule to war and one rule to treat their enemies - KILL THEM WHEREVER THEY ARE WITH ANY MEANS AVAILABLE- I guess they really aren't as stupid as we thought.

These animals are war criminals. They are not entitled to the same courts as American citizens.The Obama administration remains clueless to this fact. The thought of this administration being in charge for two more years is frightening.

Yes, of coarse, try them in civilian courts...especially after seeing how well that last trial worked out. Found guilty on one whole count! Nice job justice department!!

Hillary and Bill Clinton were Flower Children of the Woodstock era, with their long hair and Hillary's "Granny Glasses." A lot of Progressives of that era have become lawyers, professors, teachers and politicians. They will have great influence on the minds of our youth, both in grade school and college. The last two years have shown the mindset of the Progressive Movement in the attempt by Obama, and his administration to take over the control of our lives. This has prompted Middle America to rise up in the TEA Party Movement, after seeing where the Progressives are trying to take America. The tug of war is just beginning..

rights under the Constitution are privilege granted only to American citizens these terrorists should recieve no more than basic human rights. any one who says they should have their day in court doesn't understand this. milatary tribunals are what's required here.Constitutional rights apply only to American citizens not everyone on the planet being an American citizen is a privilege

Hillary, who has never tried even a drunk driving arrest is an expert on trying terrorist? Give me a break...this killer, having been charged with over 100 charges, receives a conviction on one minor one which could be thrown out on appeal. Hillary is trying to defend Obama, and his incompetent Attorney General, both of which refused sound advise to try this animal in Gitmo, under Military Law. If he had been tried in Gitmo, the cost would not have been in the millions, and if convicted of killing over 200 people, he would have been executed very soon, not living a full life in a Federal prison at Taxpayer expense. What a travesty of justice.

I wonder how Hillary would feel if a loved one was murdered by terorists??????
