Abu Abbas

Just in case you were curious about his history etc. I am providing a link to a BBC page that explains the events of the Achille Lauro. He is the latest terrorist captured by American Forces. It will be a little controversial at some point I believe.

Wouldn't it be more likely that if the US tried him, he would stand trial in some sort of military tribunal rather than a state or federal court?

There is a similar debate about a cleric in the UK, Abu Hamza http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/2949459.stm.

The only way the US will get him extradited is if the US promises that he will not receive the death penalty, it is part of our obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights.

I personally think we should hand him over to the Italians. Let them deal with the problem. If we keep him and try him we are breaking the Oslo Accords.

Oh my gosh, you're right. Someone better tell Bush that because I KNOW he would not want to go against international law.

The Reichsfuhrer believes in object lessons for all denizens of his realm.

Free TV & probably piped into the schools as well so the kiddies can watch.
