<<I can't imagine the US turning someone over to a (foreign?) country under 
such circumstances, can you?>>

Lest you think (calling you a fool) I'm giving you short shrift (the previous 
post has already been sent), let me expand.  There are no such parallel 
circumstances.  That your arguments are based on what you imagine is the 
problem.  DIck Chaney didn't hijack or order the hijacking of planes filled 
with civilians to be used as weapons against Cuba.  Your example is 
hyperbolic and absurd.  This was an act of war.  You think we should apply 
legal nicities.  Others disagree.  I'm among them.  If you want to change my 
mind--and whatever you might think, my mind is open--trust that silly 
hypotheticals are not going to do the trick.
