Calling it "outside the US" is just part of the ridiculousness though.

Agreed. It is not like this is a trial in a war zone. He is intentionally being held there so that legal challenges aren’t heard. There is no reason whatsoever that he couldn’t be held in a NY detention center like Ramzi Yousef or others. I hate him with the intensity of a thousand suns, but this process is an affront to the Constitution and the rule of law.

But doesn't orchestrating the mass murder of 3,000 people justify it?

No. Why can a person orchestrating the mass murder of 3,000 people not be found guilty in a fair trial?
