There's a difference between robbing a bank and killing 3000 people at one time. Especially when you are affiliated with and trained by terrorist organizations. There is a war on terrorism and these dogs are war criminals, not someone that stuck up a connivence store.
War criminals should be tried in a military tribunal as they have been for many years. They consider the world as their battle field and should be treated as such, not given tax payer funded lawyers to pick out loopholes for them.
There are also many security issues to consider as well. That's what military tribunals are for.
Honesty I'm surprised anyone would advocate giving terrorists Constitutional privileges.
"A military tribunal is a kind of military court designed to try members of enemy forces during wartime, operating outside the scope of conventional criminal and civil proceedings."
