WOW.... Actually, one of the things I heard he did get convicted on was destruction of US Gov property. If you are a Libyan citizen, and in LY, Is it illegal in LY law to destroy US Gov property? I do not recall in US Constitution or US Law that it is illegal for us to destroy property in other countries??!!? But, the maggot did not get convicted of murder... In WWII we did not put prisoners in criminal court.... I wonder if this is the way to do it in the GWOT....They are at war, but is America? Many in other countries do not think we were at war in the past. I think we should keep the use of GWOT, and keep that focus. Most of our own population does not think of it as a War...only our military does.

SSgt GG-15 RET Jim Lint - Libyan law doesn't matter, the attack was on United States soil. U.S. law applies at consulates and embassies.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Actually the conspiracsy to commit was outside of the walls. Plus, he was captured in his country not inside the US or US Embassy. Because you provided security for places that might be anti-Libyan do they now have the right to come grab you and I? I think now. IF he had a trial in his country, just as we tray Americans who throw bottles or trash other embassies, would the LY court say his arrest by "Delta" was legal?
