<HTML>hum....even considered this bad example for american democracy a country has -according to the geneva convention and the haager landkriegsordnung - the right to try spies. so they mustnt be delivered to the country of origin for trying.

but i think erecting military tribunals for handling law matters ALLWAYS gets the proceedings in these tribunals uundemocratic airs. they definitely have a bitter taste of victors justice,diminishing the rights of the accused.
but i wonder why a strong democracy needs a situation where it takes away rights of an accused. if he is guilty he will get his punishment befor the usual courty anyway.

military tribunals are far away from being democratic.</HTML>
