The five men facing trial in the Sept. 11 attacks will plead not guilty so that they can air their criticisms of U.S. foreign policy, the lawyer for one of the defendants said Sunday.
The five men facing trial in the Sept. 11 attacks will plead not guilty so that they can air their criticisms of U.S. foreign policy, the lawyer for one of the defendants said Sunday, Nov. 22, 2009.
Scott Fenstermaker, the lawyer for accused terrorist Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali, said the men would not deny their role in the 2001 attacks but "would explain what happened and why they did it."
The U.S. Justice Department announced earlier this month that Ali and four other men accused of murdering nearly 3,000 people in the deadliest terrorist attack in the U.S. will face a civilian federal trial just blocks from the site of the destroyed World Trade Center.
Ali, also known as Ammar al-Baluchi, is a nephew of professed 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
Mohammed, Ali and the others will explain "their assessment of American foreign policy," Fenstermaker said.
"Their assessment is negative," he said.

How can Holder prosecute Al Queda when his law firm represented Al Queda?
Same way Baraq paid off the UAW and screwed the GM bond holders in the bankruptcy - - the Chicago way.
America on trial. That was the goal. Thanks, Obama, you piece of sh!t.
Try them all, terrorists, Lawyers, they are all scum.
Placed in the category of "Duh." It takes a law degree to speak common sense?
First they will ask for a dismissal based on the idiot president and Att. Gen. remarks that pre-judged their guilt.
What a coincidence..now who is paying for their defense?
Holder knew this was going to happen at the trials. Hell, he WANTS it to happen...
AH HA, as predicted. Its all about a soap box. TV News ratings will go up too. We the people have no control over the mater, they will run the show as they please. This administration is creating all the problems. Our leader is indecisive, in way above his pay scale, and we’ve all been bamboozled! Its not a case of rights, these SOB’s should have been brought in dead, not alive. (the terrorists, not our elected officials.)
Thanks, scummy liberal judges.
“Same way Baraq paid off the UAW and screwed the GM bond holders in the bankruptcy - - the Chicago way. “
I am still mortified by this. Obama = POS Thief!
Maybe they will ask to see Obama’s birth certificate
so they can verify that Holder was properly appointed.
There are five or six ways the 9/11 terrorists can use the legal system to be “guilty as hell, free as a bird”.
1. Ask for change of venue. Can New York City jurors be unbiased?
2. Miranda rights not read.
3. Adverse publicity - all over the U.S. - change of venue not enough.
4. Confessions not admissible as due process not observed (alleged torture, etc.)
5. Soapbox for speeches - but does anyone in U.S. listen to mad bomber speeches? Besides potential future terrorists, of course.
6. If convicted, appeals for next thirty years. Retrial or outright release near certain, as BHO names more judges.
Treasonist, impeach him!
Why on EARTH would they plea guilty?
Our bungling President have given these guys so much. They couldn’t have asked for better aid.
This will turn into a MAJOR hate Bush/Hate America orgy..Obama sanctions this . He is a traitor to his country and should be forced out of office. What would it take to bring charges of treason?
7. My incompetent lawyer let me tell the jury why I did it!
We are looking at the faces of five individuals who saw to the murder over a period of about two hours of nearly 3000 humans beings...
The actions of Obama and Holder in this are worse than obscene, worse than treasonous...
The radical Islamic reaction to this “trial”—more accurately a worldwide stage setting for Islamic terrorists—will be, “See! See! See! Allah is with us! The martyrs are receiving their glory....”
Obama and Holder could not possibly love America and have initiated this.
This will not have a happy ending.
What's the big deal? KSM rants on and on about Booooosh and the Joooooos. Who will look bad? Who will look good?
I really don't think this will turn out the way they want it to.
Judge: Do you Mr. AAAAA deny your part in the events of
9-11?
AAAAA: No but I want to explain my poli....
Judge: Guilty as charged, take’em out and hang him.
Case Closed. Court Ajourned.
Didn’t see this coming. Are they (Justice Dept)requesting camaras in the coutroom too?

The so-called "problem" (a false and erroneous concept that the Muslims have) started way back at the Balfour Declaration by England in 1917 and then continued on through the League of Nations and then culiminated in the recognition of the newly declared land of Israel (as a sovereign state in the world) by Harry S. Truman on May 14, 1948.
At midnight on May 14, 1948, the Provisional Government of Israel proclaimed the new State of Israel. On that same date the United States, in the person of President Truman, recognized the provisional Jewish government as de facto authority of the new Jewish state (de jure recognition was extended on January 31). The U.S. delegates to the U.N. and top ranking State Department officials were angered that Truman released his recognition statement to the press without notifying them first. On May 15, 1948, the Arab states issued their response statement and Arab armies invaded Israel and the first Arab-Israeli war began.
So, they've got a lot of history to cover with the U.S. and what its policies have been, as they cover decades upon decades..., and all administrations, Republican or Democrat...
Who will look bad? Who will look good?
To the US they will look bad. (they don’t care)
To the 1.5 billion Muslims they will look good.
Who you gonna believe, shahids willing to die for Allah
or Satan’s lying court.
An incredible blunder of unimaginable consequences.
They're gonna have a whole lot of history to cover... LOL...
"His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country."
The declaration was made in a letter from Foreign Secretary Arthur James Balfour to Baron Rothschild (Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild), a leader of the British Jewish community, for transmission to the Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland, a Zionist organization. The letter reflected the position of the British Cabinet, as agreed upon in a meeting on 31 October 1917. It further stated that the declaration is a sign of "sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations."
Just wondering, too, if 0bama’s announcement that these POS muzzies would be tried, convicted, and executed according to the laws of the US isn’t, perhaps, prejudicial? It seems to me if the Pres__ent of the US doesn’t appear to be impartial in these cases, the defendants likely have an issue with being able to get a fair trial ANYWHERE in the US.
Could this be the case? Might this be a way to get these POW’s tried in some other, foreign venue?
Just wonderin’...
I thought that they would plea guilty but showboat and whine?
/mark
My bad. Please pardon the typo in my last post. All of the news agencies reporting this have said they will plea not guilty. I can’t believe this story made the MSM.

There were some similar issues way back when with President Nixon and Charlie Manson.
Hussein is pleased.
Don’t despair. This is good because Muslims are honest people who will tell the court that the Koran mandates them to kill infidels. Wonder how the liberals will then claim that Islam is a Religion of Peace.
I have been depressed about the political situation since the elections, but that has changed. I’m mad now.
Where is the patriot who will stand on the floor of the senate and demand Holder be removed from office? Democrat or Republican, I don’t care who does it, is there not one patriot left in office?
This can not be allowed to stand. Whatever we have to do to remove Holder from office, we need to do it. This can not be allowed to stand. Holder is not worthy of the office he holds; he needs desperately to be returned to private practice. He can go back to doing pro bono for Al Qaeda, and the FALN, and maybe paid work for mobsters like Rich.
I thing this will be Obama’s undoing, people are not going to accept this. They will chase him from office. He may eventually kick this over to the International Court in Europe, which would actually be worse. Either way, this is guaranteed to be a mess, and that is not an accident; it is by design.
Gator,
If this trial ever gets to New York or anywhere in this country it will open the season for every imported suicide bomber to blow up things all over New York or anywhere the trial is heard.
I don’t doubt that.
I also believe that folks living in the area of whatever prison they are housed in will be terrorized.
This is all a very big mistake... folks are going to die because of the dems traitorous folly.
Actually it takes a law degree to commit non-sensical behaviors. Such as declaring a positive output of a trial before it begin, and yet arguing that the trial will be fair.
**Muslims are honest people who will tell the court that the Koran mandates them to kill infidels.**
Most all members of the Murdering Terrorist CULT of islam,being tried in an American Court.. all did just that!!! don’t think it had a wit of a difference in their sentences.
Should have been tried in GITMO... given a long stairway and a SHORT ROPE.
Amen.
By the time the trial ends, the MSM will be blaming the U.S. for 9/11.
At this point, I’d rather they just be let loose onto the streets than give them a civilian trial in NYC.
Ashcroft and others have made the point Holder doesn’t have the power to yank jurisdiction away from the military. Only the Commander in Chief can do that.
