Why don't we give Taliban evidence?

I think you guys are missing something here. I don't think anyone cares about 'trying' OBL, I think the general consensus is that we'd much rather bury him than try him.

A fair trial is one of the reasons America is a civilized nation. You can take away the right to a fair trial, but that would only bring us down to the level of China, the Taliban, etc.

I'd be very, extremely curious to see which defense lawyer would represent bin Laden!

I think of this as a military problem rather than a judicial problem. It requires the lawful authorization of the use of deadly force - then find the terrorists, their supporters, aiders and abettors, and send them to the paradise they have earned.

Query - why not give the Talaban our evidence.

Answer - the law does not require useless acts. The law is not an ass.

I would like to see OBL and his cohorts tied to stakes at ground zero and allow the public to throw rocks and debris at them for $10 a toss and pay off the national debt in short order. We need to make something positive of this.
