I'm European and I don't take any delight in Obama’s stupid and dangerous decision. But I take the articles point in general.

Like many New Yorkers and members of the families of the nearly 3,000 innocent Americans murdered on that horrific Tuesday morning eight years ago, I'm outraged and insulted by President Obama's decision to transfer Khalid Sheik Mohammed, the admitted mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, to New York City for trial in civilian federal court.The Democrats for years tend to treat terrorists as criminals to be tracked down and brought to justice, as Bill Clinton would say shaking his fist with a tear in his eye. Obama is just carrying out that principle, because, thanks to Bush, we have the alleged criminals in hand. Such moves are merely a step toward One World Government.
Of course, it is insane, lacks common sense, and reflects a warped and twisted view of the world. Look to start paying taxes to the United Nations and reparations. That is the "change" most people of this country voted for.

The Pakistani police that captured him most likely did not conform to American standards of reasonable cause, protection of rights, treatment guidelines, etc. The only realistic explanation for him to be tried after the fact under US laws is to make a mockery of former and present intelligence employees and procedures. A kangaroo court running on high octane BDS.

Demonrats find Muslim terrorists useful, because not only do they hate America but are willing to kill and be killed for that hatred. Serves the Libtards purposes to a “T”. They hate America too, but are much more yellow (they call it “peace-loving”). That reminds me - they’re also hypocrites.

The case can be made that this is a shrewd legal and political strategy to insure that these guys walk while still being able to claim they brought them to trial.
The Gov’t will be unable to put on a major prosecution in open court and risk exposing the ways and means of its intelligence apparatus. Most of its most damaging evidence will never see the light of day. Perhaps more importantly, the defense is sure to turn this into a trial about water boarding and other interrogation techniques.

Obama and Eric Holder are actively and openly working to destroy America from within. The dismissal of charges against the New Black Panthers for intimidating voters in Philadelphia. Reopening investigations of Bush officials. And now the latest outrage of according privileges to terrorists who are not even eligible for protection under the Geneva Convention.

Hope they walk on a techno. Then the country will get a wake-up call and start taking terrorism seriously again.

If the terrorists somehow get out of a Federal death penalty, they'd still face state trials in Virginia(for the Pentagon) and Pennsylvania(for Flight 93), both of which still have the death penalty.
I think the idiot libs in New York state got rid of theirs.

To: Scanian
There is a distinct possibility one or more of these guys could be acquitted on some technicality. Then what? They would go back to the Middle East as heroes and begin plotting more attacks. Obama has simply not thought through the consequences of this happening and perhaps naively believes that an acquittal by the US justice system would make the jihadists love us.
