These 'people' directly attacked the US War Crimes Act [1996], the entire 'criminal-justice system' and their sworn oaths to uphold the Constitution and its laws.

The Act specifies Life Imprisonment for torture, and the Death Penalty where any detainee anywhere, whether tortured by a US civilian or a US government officer, and this Act applies to all and any US citizens throughout the world. These 'people' face the _Death Penalty_ they were so enthusuastic to apply to their fellow-Americans and others.

As a member of Amnesty International and the ACLU, I will of course campaign energetically to stop them being executed…
