Eric Holder's Horrible Hearing: The Obama plan to try KSM in New York bombs on Capitol Hill

[Geraldine Davie] joined 12 other 9/11 family members at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the Obama administration's decision to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM) and four other 9/11 planners not as enemy combatants and war criminals before a military commission, but as civilians in federal court in New York City. They brought with them more than 100,000 signatures gathered by three 9/11 and national security websites--TheBravest.com, 911Familesfor-America.org, and Keep-AmericaSafe.com (on whose board this magazine's editor serves).

Holder spoke of the trials as a correction of Bush-era delays and an overdue attempt to seek justice for the victims of 9/11, but many present disagreed with his definition of justice. "To give these animals due process and to afford them constitutional rights is obscene," said John Owens, whose brother died in the towers on 9/11. (Peter Owens would have turned 50 next week.) "It angers me to no end that this guy is gonna get a platform, paid for by us, in the shadow of Ground Zero where my brother died."

Jon Kyl, the Arizona Republican, raised cheers from the gallery with his sharp questioning of Holder, who contended that his decision to bring 9/11 terrorists to civilian courts was based, not on politics, but on where he'd have the best shot at conviction.

"How could you be more likely to get a conviction in federal court when Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has already asked to plead guilty to a military commission and be executed," he asked. "How can you be more likely to get a conviction in a [civilian] court than that?"

Holder has a long history of betraying his country...

"Fraunces Tavern is a restaurant and museum in lower Manhattan, New York City. It was built on the site of a former building which played a significant role in pre-Revolutionary activities, and in which, on 4 December 1783, General George Washington bade farewell to his officers at the end of the Revolution, before returning to his home, Mount Vernon."

"During the 1970s and 1980s, FALN members set off at least 138 bombs in five major U.S. Cities. Six Americans were killed in those attacks. One of those bombings, in January 1975, was at the historic Fraunces Tavern in lower Manhattan while patrons were at lunch. The explosion killed four and injured more than 50."

"Between 1974 and 1985 the FALN (Puerto Rican Armed Forces of National Liberation) organized 120 terrorist bombings in the United States. Many Americans were killed in those bombings, and many more were crippled. In 1983, another Puerto Rican terrorist group known as the Macheteros, attacked and robbed a Wells Fargo armored car in Connecticut. The Macheteros intended to use the money to finance a terrorist campaign against the United States. Working under the cover of Puerto Rican nationalism and claiming to act on behalf of the 'oppressed people of Puerto Rico,' the FALN and the Macheteros are nothing but Communist revolutionaries. Both groups were organized by Fidel Castro's secret police. The ultimate goal of the FALN and the Macheteros is the creation of an independent Marxist-Leninist dictatorship on the island of Puerto Rico."

Make no mistake...this decision has Obama written all over it. Only he can order the military to give up its war prisoners to US law enforcement.

Both of them (Holder and Obama) are abject Marxist ideologues and their intent is not to help America, its constitution, or fundamental republica principle-based liberty.

SIX CRITICAL REASONS TO NOT TRY TERRORISTS IN US COURT

THE MAN WHO DESPISES AMERICA

AWAKEN, O AMERICA, YOUR LIBERTY IS CALLING (Inspiring Video)

First , the decision of Obama and Holder is an insult to the Families and then it is an insult to all New Yorkers and to all Americans.

The cost is predicted to be well beyond 100 millon dollars and it will give a stage to these Barbarian Murdering Terrorists.

They should be tried on a Military Base which could limit access and cost at the same time.

If tried and convicted they could be summarily executed quietly and out of sight.

They deserve no more.

Holder and Obama want to squeese all the politial damage out of this Travesty at the cost to all Americans and that is not acceptable.

This quote from JeffHead.com cannot be repeated enough:

The fact is, Obama doesn't care about what you or I or anyone else thinks, including the founders. He is an abject marxist ideologue and he now has his mechanism in place.

He didn't go to the Whitehouse to be popular, he went there to bring fundmental change and he has been going about it very effectively since becoming President.

This is why he's leading the Dims over a cliff on all these issues, he doesn't care about being a one termer, he sees the US as evil and he thinks he's doing the world a service by bringing it down. It's all part of his reparations mentality.
