Obama Administration's Atrocious Decision
Friday at 4:39pm EST
Horrible decision, absolutely horrible. It is devastating for so many
of us to hear that the Obama Administration decided that the 9/11
terrorist mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, will be given a criminal
trial in New York. This is an atrocious decision.
Mohammed and his terrorist co-conspirators are responsible for the
deaths of more than 3,000 Americans. Thousands of American families
have suffered through the loss of loved ones
because of the disgusting attacks launched against the United States,
and now this trial venue adds insult to injury, in addition to
compromising our efforts in the War on Terror. Heaven forbid our allies
see this decision as a reason to become less likely to support our
efforts in the future.
Criminal defense attorneys will now enter into delaying tactics and other methods in the
hope of securing some kind of win for their “clients.” The trial will
afford Mohammed the opportunity to grandstand and make use of his time
in front of the world media to rally his disgusting terrorist cohorts.
It will also be an insult to the victims of 9/11, as Mohammed will no
doubt use the opportunity to spew his hateful rhetoric in the same
neighborhood in which he ruthlessly cut down the lives of so many
Americans.
It is crucially important that Americans be made aware that the
mastermind of the 9/11 attacks may walk away from this trial without
receiving just punishment because of a “hung jury” or from any variety
of court room technicalities. If we are stuck with this terrible Obama
Administration decision, I like most Americans, hope that Mohammed and
his co-conspirators are convicted. Hang ‘em high.
I wholeheartedly support the survivors and the families of the victims
in their appeal to the president regarding this matter. You can read
more about it here.
