Even if they are clearly guilty the government needs to let them go if the evidence was obtained illegally. No excuse

The US government, and by extension it's citizens, all of us....are the biggest terrorists on the planet.

In your fight against evil, make sure you don't become what you claim to be fighting.

And funny thing, lots of planning was done in Twin Towers and similar places (as americans (OWN) lately found out, too)

Bin Ladin said he would change America via terrorism and he did. We are becoming more totalitarian over time because of this.

If that's how it worked then we'd have new terrorists everytime an innocent man got released from prison. But we don't because that's not how it works.

Those guys were terrorists all along.

Well thankfully this and future despots...err presidents have the NDAA, so they don't have to worry about little details like people being locked up for almost a decade for no justifiable reason.

Illegally? You mean tortured to gain the information? I agree.
You mean an undercover agent not coming to the trial because he's still undercover and routing out the terrorist scum? You're out of your mind.
You mean a spy investigating a network by breaching our enemies information networks through wiretaps or other means that aren't legal in the US? You're out of your mind.

We're at war. and while I do not support torture, other means to gain information, targets for kill/capture, or the actual killing/capturing itself, I fully support.

Well its not really a war we are in against terrorists.

We fight wars like in Afghanistan or other places to fight terrorists but the overall effort clearly isnt a war.

This type of so called war never has an end. This is scary

Actually, I'm pretty sure statistics say that after going to prison, the likelihood that non-violent offenders will violently offend increases by quite a bit.
