Foxnews ^ | 3/22/2010 | Staff

WASHINGTON — A suspected Al Qaeda organizer once called "the highest value detainee" at Guantanamo Bay was ordered released by a federal judge in an order issued Monday.

Mohamedou Ould Slahi was accused in the 9/11 Commission report of helping recruit Mohammed Atta and other members of the Al Qaeda cell in Hamburg, Germany, that took part in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

Military prosecutors suspected Slahi of links to other Al Qaeda operations, and considered seeking the death penalty against him while preparing possible charges in 2003 and 2004.

It's not about trying him, it's about keeping him off the battlefield.

The Lefties either don't understand that, or they want him back on the battlefield.

So this is what happens when a terrorist is instead tried in the normal court system?

Screw you, 0bama!

The terrorist’s ‘lawyer’:” Ms. Hollander was one of the lawyers representing Wen Ho Lee, a scientist accused of stealing secrets about the United States nuclear arsenal for China. She handled many of the issues relating to the suppression of evidence against him and issues relating to the Special Administrative Measures to which he was subjected. She is currently lead defense counsel in United States v. Holy Land Foundation, a multi-defendant case involving allegations of material support to the Specially Designated Terrorist Organization, Hamas.’

A personal friend of Eric Holder no doubt. She is an ACLU traitor to this country....just like Holder.

This is a war criminal. He should not still be drawing breath.

And those who subscribe to Obama’s “soft power” philosophy are criminals as well in my book. Millions are likely to die because of them.

It wasn’t President Bush holding up the prosecutions of these terrorists in a military tribunal...it was the ACLU and other’s.... like Eric Holder’s old law firm.

President Bush was required by law to respond to their lawsuits and then they just kept filing one after another. Can we get off the Bush bashing please and focus on the damn communists that are taking over our country?

There are about 9 people working for Holder who defended terrorists.

Obama is closing Gitmo.

People in the field must now give Miranda rights to terrorists.

Holder is attempting to try the 9/11 terrorists in civilian court.

3 Navy SEAL’s are on trial for punching a terrorist in the nose.

And now this.

How can ANYONE believe dems are Pro-America?

Clinton appointed this judge? But how can that be. We had peace and prosperity when Clinton was president and everything was fine.

So many people actually believe that, so they thought it was OK to trust the presidency to a Dem again. Heaven help us all.

Does this judge realize that Guantanamo Bay is a unique entity as it is not a US territory or state and he has no authority there?

Seriously. At some point, the grown ups may have to take the steering wheel away from the kids (and it may not be peaceful).

This terrorist should get one thing on his release from prison: 230 grains.

It has to. The current system is unsustainable and has to crash before it can be restored. It’s all a matter of who is going to be there to do the rebuilding. I’m hoping its the good guys (meaning us)

They over played their hand...we still have a volunteer military and an armed citizenry...

They will seek to counter with amnesty and a draft......

Until The People recognize that the Power of the law does not lay in man just because they make the laws or attempt to enforce them....but the Power to make them WORK for the people resides in God's power behind them, then we will continue to see the law and courts fail to administer the justice we desire..

When God is forced out of our courts and governments, as He has been, our laws become powerless to enforce the protections over us He intended....rather they become an instrument in the power of another who protects the guilty...just as we see more and more of...and they will continue to strut their evil before us. (Pelosi's photo on Drudge shows this well)

God will not acknowledge lip service....especially when He is defied by our leadership...blatantly and unashamedly, as is now done in our courts and governance. And we will and do pay a price for supporting them.

It doesn't matter if one believes this or not...He doesn't need our approval to act or refrain from acting...But if you look at what's happening throughout our country...thru the eyes of understanding there is no way our laws can do what they are intended to do without the one who Empowers them to work...then we'll never understand the madness we are seeing playing out.

I’m convinced that we’re not going to make it to November, especially if Amnesty is passed. That’s the whole plan. They don’t care about healthcare or amnesty in the long run. They are trying to crash the system. They are trying to incite open rebellion.
