Don't be so sure. This administrations handling of these prisoners may
preclude any finding of guilt. While they are trying very hard to
overcome those pesky V & VI Amendments, let's pray they fail. "Secret
evidence", coerced evidence, and retroactive authorizing interrogation
tactics have yet to become the American way.

The V says...(not that it applies to war & terrorist without countries)
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous
crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in
cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in
actual service in time of War or public danger; "

Both amendments are for citizens of America, for the people who fought
and died for thoses rights, they are not for captured terrorists or war
combatants. They do not even deserve the right afforded by the geneva
convention, as the are fanatical jihad dogs without a country.

War crimes are delt with by military tribunals, don't like it...don't
attack Americans and start a war, and get captured.
