No further discussion needed or allowed.
there needs to be a process, a group decision, that is used on all cases. Due process.
There is limited due process in wartime. That’s the question. Taking down the World Trade center was more than a Halloween prank, although the 1993 bombing was treated as such. There is a recognized force that declared war on the United States and attacked us on 9/11. That force has to be dealt with lethally.
