George W. Bush sought to establish military tribunals primarily in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, aiming to try non-citizen terrorists and those accused of terrorism-related offenses. He believed that traditional civilian courts were ill-suited for such cases, particularly concerning issues of national security and the handling of classified information. The tribunals were intended to expedite the legal process and ensure that justice could be administered swiftly and effectively against those posing threats to the United States. However, this move faced significant legal and ethical challenges regarding due process and the rights of defendants.
