Self-proclaimed Sept. 11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other Guantanamo Bay detainees will be sent to New York to face trial in a civilian federal court, and five other suspects will be sent to military commissions, an Obama administration official said Friday.
The official said Attorney General Eric Holder plans to announce the decision later in the morning. The official is not authorized to discuss the decision before the announcement, so spoke on condition of anonymity.
Without confirming details of the decision, President Barack Obama said it was a legal and national security matter. "I am absolutely convinced that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed will be subjected to the most exacting demands of justice," Obama said at a joint news conference in Tokyo with Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama.
Now is the time to try men's souls! We have Show Trials a-Coming! Eric "Nation of Cowards" Holder is trotting out the real criminals of 9-11 - George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.
While the Muslim Martyrs from Gitmo will be the guys in cuffs, Bush and Cheney will be tried in absentia by Holder's Nation of Coward Justice Department.
It makes perfect Progressive sense, People!

Well, I just hope the proclaimed exacting demands of justice are going to be met. Because the only thing people like Mohammed deserve, is the death sentence and in this case, it could be decided even without a trial. In fact it would not be enough to kill him just once considering 3000 victims, he is responsible for. Obama can do whatever he wants, as long as his assurance of justice will prove to be correct. We will see about that. Lorne
Everyone is laughing at O'Dulce!
