   If nothing else, you may gain a new appreciation for the term “enemy combatant” as well as al Qaeda’s religious determination to kill you.

   And the current administrations ability to let them.

   As Obama said, he will be tried, convicted, and executed. Huh? You mean theres no chance he is not guilty? Not even let off on a technicality like torture? If conviction is a fact, lets just do an executive order and save some time & money.

   It’s a strange dichotomy – on the one hand, one of the reasons our civilian system of justice is the best is the principle of “innocent until proven guilty”; on the other hand, it is a foregone conclusion that KSM and the other 9-11 murderers will be convicted and executed.

   I’m sure Obummer will find some way to get him released and put the soldiers who caught him and the CIA agents who questioned him on trial instead.

   Then, if, GOD FORBID, there’s another terrorist attack, blame it on President Bush.

   I strongly suspect anything that KSM said will be thrown out because he will say he was forced by torture to say anything he said. Then it will boil down to him being a freedom fighter trying to free his down trodden people from the grip of the Evil Bush Empire.

   If you listen to the tape or watch the video, it’s clear that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed understood the difference between information he surrendered while under duress and information he volunteered while not under duress, stating four times that he felt no force or coercion to offer his confession.

   This supports AG Holder’s contention that there will be a trial that will not necessarily involve revealing anything to do with EIT.

   Anything dealing with duress does not have to be used. Information gathered that does not involve duress can be used.

    I’m pretty sure I get it. I have had 7 close friends murdered by Islamic terrorists and know other people murdered by Marxists.

    What I want is some way to make our government “get it!”

    Yeah, sure, and we all KNOW KSM and his lawyers can’t raise ANY issues the government might not raise or want raised in a civilian court room…

    No, Holder, and his boss, are committed Marxists bent on destroying this nation. Never forget that.

    They may be idiots but they have power and that power is dangerous in the hands of idiots and ideologues as the Bolshevik Revolution demonstrated.

    What I just saw and read was a completely uncoerced declaration that this man is an enemy combatant who killed 3000 americans on one day and participated in dozens of other attacks, and he is proud of it. Ben Laden is his George Washington and we are like the British. Or something.

    The tribunal was fair and open for anyone to see, save for classified information, but it’s not even needed.

    Holder and Obama are insane. Stark raving idiots. This is a slam dunk done deal and they want to put on a $200Mil circus to determine what we already know?? I am just stunned.

    This one is close too close to home for me.

    One of my fondest and proudest memories, just 3 days after getting pounded on September 11th, is of standing atop my sailboat near Liberty State Park in New Jersey, and waving my American Flag to two F-16 (single seat, single tail) pilots…one who dipped his wings while looking straight-down, port at me, as they semi-circled Ground Zero while President Bush was making his famous megaphone speech in the rubble.

    After 3 days of lock down at Liberty State Park after September 11th, those pilots made me and my marina neighbors feel quite liberated that Friday afternoon.

    I cannot believe how far we have come, with absolute asses like Obama and Holder in charge of our security.

    Absolute arrogant asses, the both of them.
