Well, they could just try telling the truth.  A novel approach for
some, no doubt.

:They have already been treated
:disgracefully and almost certainly tortured to produce such
:"evidence". 

And given the evidence you have for THAT claim, I think we see what
'evidence' really means to you.

:Their defence council and the judges will have a vested

:that would save the American people the further shame of hypocracy.

And yet, oddly, we have yet to see the first conviction and execution.

[If we were just interested in killing them out of hand, they'd be
dead now.]
