The five detainees at Guantánamo Bay charged with planning the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks have filed a document with the military commission at the United States naval base there expressing pride at their accomplishment and accepting full responsibility for the killing of nearly 3,000 people.
...
In their filing, the men describe the planning of the Sept. 11 attacks and the killing of Americans as a model of Islamic action, and say the American government’s accusations cause them no shame, according to the excerpts read by the government official.
“To us,” the official continued reading, “they are not accusations. To us they are a badge of honor, which we carry with honor.”

Their security clearance is as good as his.

They will get all the same rights you were born with as a US citizen if their feet touch US soil. Then “OJ justice” kicks in and the defense lawyers come out of the woodwork.

Drag them down on the beach and put a 9mm slug in their brains. Then chunk them to the sharks.
