Should Osama Be Innocent Until Proven Guilty?

[Angela Harlem]

ugh.

 

[Dreadsox]

back to Osama and Terrorism...the laws on the books specifically deal with other nations, which was my point...not terrorist organizations that know no boundaries or governments. It is a totally different battle, and I am not trying to diminish one War crime from another.

What the hell are you talking about? Of course, it is valid, and, of course, "innocent until proven guilty" DOES work for Osama bin Laden.

In fact, I think we have plenty of evidence to PROVE his guilt--audio tapes, video tapes, etc. So this question, in many ways, is a non-issue, if only because he's given us PLENTY of evidence to PROVE his GUILT.

Hmm, what I meant to say is that he's so GUILTY that the statement, "innocent until proven guilty" does not work because he is not innocent to begin with, and we all know that.
So what the hell are you talking about?

The answer is simple:

Beat osama bin laden to death with the remains of the world trade center.


slowly.

There is no doubt in my mind that that's what will happen. I normally shy away from calling God's shots, but it's tough to think of anything else happening to a like bin Laden.

Sometimes it is very tempting to sit down on the seat of God, i guess.

I guess......thats they way I feel about it though
If I could have sat in the seat of god he would have been wiped off the face of the earth long ago....

I'm reminded why I stopped coming here.

I don't think he'll ever get caught alive if he can help it but-

yes, he should stand trial to international court. International law punishes the crimes, it does not concentrate so much on what the position of the person is or where the crime happened. If we can trial people who commited horrible acts (far worse than any terrorist attack) like the Nazis or ex-dictators and state leaders I don't see why the same can't happen to Bin Laden.
Yes terrorists don't follow the rules but we do, and until the world puts some acceptable-for-all list of rules on how to handle these things Rule of Law is all we've got.
(considering his Saddam comment, I think we all know where Bush stands as to what the punishment should be)

He's only guilty, thanks to the mountain of evidence that proves the contrary. He isn't guilty, merely because Generalissimo Bush says so.

[babyman]

there are lots of videos where he declares himself as the first enemy of america and of the west world and most of all where he's confessing his guilt

 

[babyman]

Nicely put.

If we do capture him, I say we throw him in jail for the rest of his life instead of put him to death. Let's see how tough he feels when he's with some of the other hardened criminals.

he's a wild beast, he wouldn't understand nothing
