Attorney General Eric Holder Press Conference On Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Going On Trial In NY pt.1

[papavalium]

KSM has more rights then Hasan the actual US citizen. That's how crazy Obama thinking is.

[rugger8541]

proof once again that the Democrats are the worst at handling all situations. you don't put terrorists on trial. you put them in the ground.

[az111709]

You're an idiot. Did all those rucks damage your brain? KSM is a civilian. "Enemy combatant" was legal weaseling to get out of having to follow the geneva convention. Trying them in military court is unconstitutional, as they are not soldiers. If they WERE soldiers, and evidence gotten from them under torture would be thrown out, and they would probably be set free.. You probably would want that though, just so you could blame Democrats.

[rugger8541]

you cease being a "civilian" when you participate in espionage or terrorism. and trying enemy combatants or terrorists in a military court is not unconstitutional. FDR did it to german sabateurs during WWII, on U.S. soil in fact.

[tehreporter]

because that's what the world's greatest symbol of freedom does, tortures people and then kills them without trial.

[rugger8541]

oh cry me a river of tears. "how terrible it is for the U.S. to torture people for information. we've been doing it since long before now. or maybe you feel bad for the Germans and Japanese we tortured to get information out of. maybe we shouldn't have done that and taken our chances winning that war too?

[az111709]

Then maybe we should opt out of the Geneva Conventions. Like it or not, WOT suspects are entitled to trials in the US Justice system. Look up Boumediene v. Bush.

[rugger8541]

just because the Supreme Court has a liberal majority doesn't make their interpretation of the constitution correct. remember the dredd scott decision? giving Terrorists who disregard every law of land combat any rights will backfire and the left wing judges will be partially to blame. in the meantime, the CIA will just have to interrogate and rid the world of the terrorists in private.

WASHINGTON Nearly two years after Khalid Shaikh Mohammed 911s mastermind - was acquitted on charges of planning the September 2001 terrorist attacks, two nuclear weapons stuck New York and Los Angeles killing tens of thousands, and virtually paralyzing a nation shocked with grief and disbelief. It has also been determined that after Khalid Shaikh s return to Pakistan in 2010, as a free man, he began planning the 2012 nuclear attack on N.Y. and L.A.

[ProjectTap]

This is your belief?

[yahazif]

It the gov't is putting Khalid Mohammed on trial then that means there is a possiblility of acquital. If he is acquited will the gov't let him go? Certainly not. So then, why is he being tried? The bottom line is the Obama administration is creating a situation where they are going to try a man and they will only accept one verdict. This is ridiculous and filled with danger. And for those who say that Khalid Mohammed could not be found innocent I have just two letters for you: "OJ"

[dubasher]

they're doing it to put the UNITED STATES on trial, not the terrorists. Obama and his merry cast of communists hate this country and want it brought to it's knees.

[leftwingwacko]

Treating a terrorist attack that killed thousands as a law enforcement issue is disgusting and endangers us all . People who voted this current Administration into power should feel shame. Obama is completely incompetent and does not understand Al Qaeda and their goal to destroy the USA. This is WAR Barrack Hussein Obama.

[cotullaguy]

Al Queda is CIA moron.

[leftwingwacko]

I thought the 911 truthtards were extinct? The overwhelming evidence that proves your paranoid fantasies incorrect must have eluded you for some untold reason. Step out of your Mother's basement and see the light.

[cotullaguy]

ok..and who did 9/11 einstein?

[tehreporter]

Since the 9/11 hijackers were clearly CIA they must have decided that their performance just wouldn't be too convincing unless they killed themselves. You really have to hand it to them. That's what I call fucking method acting!

[UCSDEngineerDoctor]

This is a tragedy to the victims of 911. Obama is a joke and should be impeached.

[cotullaguy]

especially since the govt did 9/11 and there has yet to be any independent investigation. that is a real tragedy...

[Edhallick]

They`re trying this Khalid Sheik in New York city, the aquittal capital of the world! LMAO!! Oh god this is going to be hilarious, this absolute a-hole Obama is going to look like the biggest sucker in history when this guy gets aquitted. Democrats won`t even be able to get elected to McDonalds manager never mind a political office again.

[TheSwordOfLight1980]

This trial is going to be the biggest zoo in history.

Every 9/11 truther nut is going to be coming out of the woodwork.

Islamic fundies are going to turn up in droves hand in hand with peacenik hippies.

Liberal bleeding hearts are going to turn this into a rerun of the Rosenbergs' trial.

Finally KSM is going to use the stand as a pulpit to preach jihad and hate.

It's going to be a humungus freakshow.

[Edhallick]

Well I`m praying this a-hole gets aquitted. Oh yes, if this is the price we have to pay to get rid of the Pelosis, the Harry Reids, the Barney Franks, I`m all for it. Let`s not forget it wasn`t Bush who was responsible for 911 - It was 8 years of liberalism under Clinton that crippled the CIA and allowed terrorism to flourish. If this KSM is aquitted, the outrage will be so great it will be decades if not forever before another liberal is elected into office again. THAT alone is worth it!

[brouseinthehouse]

inevitably, this will lead to the revelation of how such an act was possible, implicating the Bush Administration ultimately.

[cotullaguy]

9/11 was carried out by the DOD and Mossad. If they go to court with any real trial, it will be very easy to prove that the government has lied from the beginning. The truth movement has many experts that would shoot down the government lies very quickly to a jury. Thus, I guarantee you they have the jury and judge bought and paid for as well as the defense. They will not be allowed to put on a real trial as it would quickly prove demolitions to wtc as well as flight 93 shot down by us.

[fardavari]

wikipedia;

According to a US intelligence summary reported on August 29, 2009 by the Washington Post, his time in the U.S did lead him to become a terrorist. "KSM's limited and negative experience in the United States — which included a brief jail stay because of unpaid bills — almost certainly helped propel him on his path to becoming a terrorist.

[iamavet]

Geneva convention call them unlawful combatants who targeted civilians. Geneva has ruled anyone who targets civilians as war crimes- not the same as normal crimials. They can be given a military trial and than hung.

Holder covered up Ruby Ridge and the civilians killed at Waco, Tx, why would he follow Geneva Convention.

[MrCaleb6000]

I couldn't believe the dinks on Fox. One of them tried to get a mother of a 9/11 group to say that the decision opened up horrible wounds and intimated that our court system would somehow free the terrorists on evidentiary snags.

The mother calmly told him that her primary concern was the families of 9/11 and she was pretty much okay with a trial in NYC.

The Fox dink was awfully disappointed that she didn't flip out the way they wanted her to & push the Fox anti-government agenda.

[PersianPaladin]

Eric Holder. Go fuck your mother in hell.

[whoo689]

Why is the DOJ holding a press conference on KSM in 2009?? Didn't they already convict this guy?? Seriously, what does it take to get the gov't to actually fucking speed this shit up??? I guess that's gov't bureaucracy for you. If there's one thing the private sector CAN do, even the left will agree, is do things much faster and not get tangled in bureaucracy (usually). Can't say that for banks, cuz, after all, you have to go through a really tangled web of bullshit, like waiting 7-10 days.

[whoo689]

7-10 days for a fucking debit or credit card! I just got a card through Tigers Credit Union and got it from the central branch IMMEDIATELY! They have that 2 or 3-day hold bullshit after you open an account and get new funds transferred into it. It's madness. Of course, probably a lot of is from unnecessary gov't regulation and red tape. I'd find it difficult to believe the banks LIKE inconveniencing customers.

[cotullaguy]

whoo689,

you ask why it took so long? why did it take over 400 days to get an official investigation into 9/11? maybe because our government did 9/11? if you still believe that 19 cavemen, being directed by another caveman who had no way to actually communicate with them during the hijackings. how did wtc 7 come down in its footprint at 5 pm when it was never hit by a plane? why do so many people say bombs were going off in the wtc? why is there no video of a plane hitting the pentagon

[ManoKiaule]

jesus christ not another 9/11 conspiracy theorist. That shit has been debunked ten times over. Shut the fuck up with it already.

[cotullaguy]

and how did wtc 7 collapse again?

Morbidity and Mortality among Iraqi Children from 1990 through 1998: Assessing the Impact of the Gulf War and Economic Sanctions,

[shurlocksam86]

93. The best estimate for postwar health-related deaths is between 60,000 and 100,000, including children and adults. These deaths had to do mostly with the intentional targeting of Iraqi power generation, water purification, and sewage treatment capabilities, which had the aim of increasing international leverage over Iraq in the postwar period.

[shurlocksam86]

The postwar anti-regime uprisings probably cost Iraq 30,000 civilian lives and 5,000 military. Subsequently, the sanction regime probably cost the lives of 170,000 children. (Much higher estimates for 1992-1998 sanction deaths are made by some, but these are based on faulty baseline statistics for prewar childhood mortality in Iraq).
