Cal Thomas. “Trying terrorists in New York is dangerous.” The Wichita Eagle. November 18, 2009: “It also will serve as a recruiting video for future terrorists, because it will demonstrate what, to them, is weakness. A strong nation would have tried these men in the military tribunals Congress authorized for that purpose. A weak nation imputes rights to noncitizens who want to do away with the very rights we are now going to afford them.”
