11:10 PM (2 minutes ago)Great news! Khalid Sheik Mohammed may never stand trial at all and just rot in GITMOfrom Fire Andrea Mitchell! by adminAnother facepalm moment. If the reports at the Washington Post are correct, Khalid Sheik Mohammed may NEVER see a trial at all, and just continue to waste away in Gitmo. According to the article, the Obama regime has concluded that it cannot put Mohammed on trial in federal court because of the opposition in New York. The regime is also afraid to use military prosecution on Mohammed because it would “alienate” progressive liberal supporters of this regime. Yes, this is the coward of the Obama regime, and the slime that is Eric Holder.The administration asserts that it can hold Mohammed and other al-Qaeda operatives under the laws of war, a principle that has been upheld by the courts when Guantanamo Bay detainees have challenged their detention.
The White House has made it clear that President Obama will ultimately make the decision, and a federal prosecution of Mohammed and four alleged co-conspirators has not been ruled out, senior officials said. Still, they acknowledge that a trial is unlikely to happen before the next presidential election and, even then, would require a different political environment.
