    Why legal conviction? ...try public lynching.
    You can appeal to his medevial instinct by, declaring him a witch and tie him to a stake The gasoline from his car and a lighter, would cheer things up.

    Todays, Indian Express, had a column stating that US troops have discovered that Iraqi insurgents are using drugs like adrenaline to boost them before an attack. So thats how they carry out the sucide attacks. Ha Ha...
    Can't get a link but will post one as it appears.

    No surprise, that's pretty common among insurgent troops on suicide missions.

    The terrorist are not soldiers anyway. They don;t wear uniform and hence cannot be termed as soldiers as per the GC. At best theya re irregulars.

    No using stimulants is not illegal to the best of my knowledge.

    In WW II, before an attack a peg or two was given.

    Really? What treaty? That's interesting.
    "Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have."
