Can not be said enough!
But if you are applying the civilian standards of evidence then those confessions were made under the duress of {gasp} torture. The confessions will be thrown out. Even if they are still convicted it only takes one juror to stop the death penalty. Even if they are given the death penalty they still have years of automatic appeals all the way to the Supreme Court.
They have been given at the absolute minimum a five year stay of execution.
thank you for possting this —
it is so obviously true.

Would KSM and the others look at a not guilty verdict as a sign from Allah that they are on Allah’s side in their attacks on western civilization?
Would other Muslims around the world look at a not guilty verdict as a miracle from Allah that they should re-double their efforts against us?
Even if all are found guilty, this sets a terrible precedent that, warlike acts against America will be dealt with in the civilian criminal justice system.
You can bet the ranch that any captured future terrorists will use this case as a precedent to have their cases tried in civilian court.
