They will have to be tried in court to establish whether they actually are the right persons.
This is why we have courts of law, to determine these things. They are accused of terrorism and whether they are or not, that's what has to be established. We know their fundamentalist Islamic connections and what that pattern of behavior has entailed in the past however, It is not fair for people to intimidate Muslims as was done with a Muslim lady who was beaten by assailants who escaped. This is essentially un-American.

Here, I think the US missed a bet by not putting Osama bin Laden on trial to be convicted in a court of law. Our credibility as a just nation is undermined by this.
