I believe that it is important that justice is seen to be done throughout the world, the arab world especially should feel that justice was carried out. I believe this is important as It will help lessen the chances of further such atrocities occuring.
Let me point out that the Geneva Convention only applies to recognized governments, not individual people. So he shouldn't have the same rights as prisoners of war. He's not fighting by the accepted rules of engagement.
You're gonna have to do allot more than just try this guy in an international court to get people to stop acting like this. it's built into their very being that hate is the way to get your point across. That's what needs to change. And that's a tall order. So in the mean time. JUST KILL THE BASTAGE!!!!!!!!!
