The erratic terror suspect dubbed "Lady Al Qaeda" was tossed from her own trial Tuesday after a courtroom rant declaring she never plotted to blow up New York landmarks.

Aafia Siddiqui's diatribe came as a U.S. Army captain described the savage look on her face when she opened fire on a roomful of military personnel in Afghanistan.

This is exactly why Al-Qaeda operatives should strictly be tried in military tribunals. What does a jury think now in terms of her mental sanity? What kind of safety will they feel after a verdict? Bush was a fool to try to prosecute her in federal court. Thankfully, we have our Savior in office and He and Big Les/Sis know best. Can’t wait for the tomfoolery of KSM’s trial... Thanks for nothing.

This whole story is just??????? The other day i googled this case and found a blog which these people where so worried about her and her boy.... How the law was mistreating her and the mother should be with her son .. From what I understand she was captured in Afghanistan and tried to grab a riffle and shoot her captors.. They should have killed her there. IMO I'm just sayin"!

it's bizarre (and infuriating) to see a soldier testifying about this in a criminal courtroom.

A foretaste of the Holder's plan.
