Yes to Military Tribunals

Reader comment on item: Judges Repair the Mistakes of Juries
in response to reader comment: Terrorism Cases - Military Tribunals

An additional reason for miliary tribunal, which I heard from some talking head on the radio or TV, is that they would be a better forum for presenting evidence that we have but do not want released into the public domain.
