I'm firmly in Terrorists should not be in court side of the debate. I doubt that's surprising giving my record. I figure I will be the minority opinion.

"We" may probably get some justice, but it may turn out not to be the so-called justice lots of people hoped for.

The final irony would be that the cases get torpedoed by the interrogation practices the GOP insisted was so necessary. Not that I expect this guy (or any other) to go free, even if it was proved all the evidence was falsified. It would be political suicide for the politicians if he (or any other) was released.
