Bull shit....if Obama's for it, you're against it.. The entire world recognizes what the RWE's are doing. Who declared war...on whom?

I can't speak for anyone else but I definitely would not ever suggest trying these guys in a criminal court. These people were engaged in a war, not robbing banks.

Well in addition to detaining them for the duration as combatants engaged in waging war against the US, you could also try them for war crimes. Just waging war is not a crime, and it would be against the Geneva Convention to prosecute them for doing it, but their methods are war crimes, so they could be tried for them just as some Nazis and some Japanese military where.

However traditionally you would have military or special international tribunals to do this, not ordinary criminal courts.
