#2 The local tribal chiefs, elders and the intellects of the province

Curious as to what qualifications or IQ one must have to be a Somalian "intellect" - able to strip an AK-47 in under 30 secs, hang your sister for forgetting to bow when entering the room, etc.??

#3 If they are smart they will hold a quick French-Style military tribunal, convict the bastard, and then carry out the sentence before the ACLU support team gets on the ground.

#4 Hell, hang the ACLU team when they turn up. If you are a Nazi lawyer you qualify as an unarmed combatant. Better yet, hang them for piracy.

#5 hang the ACLU team when they turn up

Who needs any other reason than they're part of the ACLU? If the law wasn't so picky around here, I'd do it in my back yard. Got a nice maple with a perfect hangin' limb. Learned how to tie a hangin' knot in 4th grade - back before the ACLU took over runnin' the schools.

#6 Must be getting tired; whatever happened to the reported intense field interrogations and then the summary execution? now they have a face the ACLU and all the other SPCAs wanna bes can point to.
