Tribunal

It seems that recent presidents have had a penchant for trying terrorists in civilian court. This is totally out of line. They are war criminals, not civil criminals. In the current case where they want to try this terrorist in New York it will cost about $240 million. If it were to go to a military tribunal it would be a fraction of that because the military already has it's lawyers on staff whose job it is to do just that.

So why would the government not want to save the money when we are in a deep recession. Quick answer: the government never wants to save money.... only spend it.
