Couldn't very well try them until their status was defined. According to the Geneva Accords they would have been classed as illegal combatants and the trial could have been done right away. Instead we saw the media and the liberals claiming that they were POW's or they were criminals and should have been tried in civil courts. Until their status was fully determined neither trial could have been held. In addition the civilian lawyers who were to defend them kept bringing up point after point to be determined and that held up the process even longer. All the while the liberals and the MSM were broadcasting fake stories about what was going on. Remember the Koran in the latrine? That held it up even more. Now we hear it was a Bush Admin screwup that damaged America's pre-eminence. Wonderful! If you throw krep at it some will stick and that was the damage. Strange how the left was not that interested in Berg or Daniel Pearl when they got their heads chopped off. Short weekend story and then mostly forgotten. No problem.
