"Release is not guaranteed if suspect is found not guilty" - then what's the purpose of the trial?? they're back in square one - being held indefinately w/o counsel.

i'll bet u almost anything, most these people have nothing to do w/ what happened on 911. we just went over there and took 'em in.
International law doesn't apply to them, because the international law says it doesn't, which is why they're called illegal combatants, and which is why we can and should do what we are. The military knows its shit, let them do their jobs.
