And I have no problem with that. We are not murderers who kill everybody just because we can.
But they should not be brought to the US and tried under our laws. Leave them where they were captured, and let that country try them. After all, that is where their crimes were committed.
Trials if they make it to trial are short and the sentence in quickly imposed.
One problem is the death sentences many would receive will cause an uproar with some in the west.
Not the best comparison, but best I could do.

(Reuters) - Australia has complained about the treatment of two drug smugglers, who face execution in Indonesia, and wants to lodge a formal protest after a smiling Indonesian police chief was photographed posing with the men, officials said on Friday.
The planned executions of Myuran Sukumaran, 33, and Andrew Chan, 31, have ramped up diplomatic tension between Australia and Indonesia after repeated pleas for mercy on their behalf. They are among a group of up to 11 convicts, mostly foreigners, due to be executed on the prison island of Nusakambangan.
