26. I disagree with the bulk of posters here ...
While I despise the Boy Prince and believe a special place in hell would be too kind for his spoon-fed ass, the crimes of Osama bin Laden are real, to which he has himself confessed .... He HAS confessed to the bombings of the African embassies, of which HUNDREDS of innocent people perished ....

It matters not what Bush or anyone else had done, for that matter: There is no justification for the intentional destruction of innocent human life; not for George Bush, and not for Osama bin Laden ...

He is a self admitted mass murderer, and deserves to be held accountable for his crimes .... It would be wrong to use Bush as an excuse to ignore bin Laden's self confessed criminality .... that would be a Tu Quoque fallacy ....

I would agree that an International tribunal, properly established by multilateral, international consensus, would be a valid forum to seek that justice ....

McCain is an asshole, but that option seems reasonable to me ....

ANYONE who murders innocent people should be brought to justice ... otherwise; just what is the fucking point to living a moral life if we permit such gross violations of human rights to go unpunished ? ....

I expect flames, but that doesn't matter: I expect justice to be universally applied .... It needs to be universally consistent ....
