Larry: The last news I heard, the stock market it going up. Nearing the 10,000 mark again as a matter of fact.

After listening to Tony Snow's interview with Attorney General Ashcroft on the Fox News Network this morning, the idea of having military courts try those accused of war crimes makes more sense to me.

1. No U. S. citizens would be tried by military courts.

2. Foreign terrorists should not be accorded the same civil rights as those enjoyed by citizens.

3. The military courts would try only cases related to the committing of war crimes.

That narrows the field down enough for me to see the logic of trying prisoners charged with committing a war crime in a military court.
