A Fair Trial
The Supreme Court of the US has ruled that it's unconstitutional to have a military tribunal for the detainees at Guantanamo, affording them the same due process that an American would enjoy. While I personally don't think that's necessary, kudos to the US for granting those prisoners the same right that Al-Qaida denies its hostages. In my mind it certainly clarifies the moral superiority of the American position.

dude. who's doing the hand-slapping of al-qaida? Or Somalian Islamic Fascists? Or the French government acting in the Ivory Coast? What I'm saying is that the Americans, by actually being able to self-regulate via the Supreme Court are doing things in a moral fashion that these other groups are incapable of!
