But, despite early promises to show this evidence openly, as would be required in any American court of law, the government of the United States has withheld the evidence, insisting that it cannot e revealed for reason of "National Security". Yet, this evidence has supposedly been shared with the governments of other nations to persuade them to join the cause of bombing a lot of Afghani non-combatants.
So, in truth, the ONLY people this evidence is secret from are the people being asked to surrender their taxes and their children to pay for this adventure.
The requirement that proof of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt against an accused be fully public is a cornerstone of our American culture. In casting that requirement away in the haste to carry out the already planned invasion of Afghanistan, the government of the United States has already conceded defeat to those who planned the World Trade Tower attacks.
