IT'S A TERRORIST, NOT A TRAGEDIST

Here's to making history, thanks to the Attorney General Eric Holder:

The self-proclaimed mastermind of the 9/11 attacks Khalid Sheikh Mohammed along with four alleged co-conspirators are to be brought to New York City to stand trial instead of being tried as the enemy combatants that they are in a swift military tribunal.

Okay, never mind the 'swift' part because that ain't happening—remember the circus trial of terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui?

The 'greatest justice system' in the world, in the absence of a better one, will see to it that they drag this thing out and create a wild spectacle for all the world to see and for the American haters to spin and propagandize at tax payers’ expense. What I believe the Obama-Holder administration hopes to do is to put the Bush administration and the CIA on trial and create a spectacle that detracts from the administration's own woes at present. Why are we in any case, treating murderers with such benevolence and a rather indulgent air?

You can brow-beat the Bush-Cheney administration all day long and whine about how they are culpable that we are where we are, but at some point, you have to stand on your own accomplishments at least before the 2010 mid-term elections.

Here’s to the Obama administration, mere trifles, that the Nobel Peace Prize elite too intoxicated on “the magic of hope” juice missed: racking up a record of super high deficits; more reckless spending proposals; 10% unemployment; a deteriorating situation in Afghanistan bogged down by the president's signature indecision; an economic stimulus pack that cost billions but has done little if anything in stimulating the economy—Unless you are counting the government contract that is not self sustaining and shows up for three weeks, tweaks the job growth figures and quickly vanishes into thin air leaving behind a trail of dead private sector jobs; a deep commitment by the administration to call a clearly terrorist act by an Islamic fanatic Army Major Nidal Hasan that murdered innocent people "a tragedy", and at all costs obliterate the word "terror" when lives are being lost. Shouting "Allahu Akbar" before commencing a shooting murderous spree is a jihadist battle cry, Mr. AG...put that on a 3x5 for future reference.

When is the last time we had one of the scores of doctors and psychiatrists who deal with all kinds of pressure get up and murder innocent people because they snapped? And while we are at it, Mr. Joe Kleine of Time magazine, there are no "odious attempts by Jewish extremists . . . to argue that the massacre perpetrated by Nidal Hasan was somehow a direct consequence of his Islamic beliefs." Bashing the Jews always works doesn’t it? Let's keep an eye out for all those Hare Krishna suicide bombers in "ignoring the obvious 101".

I would counsel the House and the Senate to ask Virginia and New Jersey: the melting wax from the wings of Icarus may sting a wee bit much.

Taking this trial to civilian court and showering these terrorists with full constitutional rights which they are not entitled to is a flat out bad idea not to mention unnecessary and irresponsible. Of course they will milk this for all it's worth and with the aid of dishonest lawyers that I will pay for, bring from the dead all kinds of technicalities and you must know the ACLU if foaming at the mouth at this one. With lawyers who haunt Manhattan coffeehouses with no sense of war and no battle scars of anything, save the trauma of encountering an improperly labeled 'very hot' Starbucks caffè latte, throwing out some of the terrorists confessions due to a trifling thing like the fact that we did not mirandize the bastards, who are not entitled to Miranda rights neither do they deserve them, is but a sinister gesture of things to come.

If the Attorney General wants to find impartial jurors in New York City, he needs to have the trial at the studios of NBC News; that's where terrorists are treated with kid gloves and given every benefit of the doubt over the US military.

Mr. Attorney General Holder, here's how to make history that lives on in non-infamy...Read about the Nuremberg trials also known affectionately as tribunals—a word at whose utterance NBC, CBS, ABC and CNN anchors choke themselves into convulsions, oh! how un-nice we are. These tribunals prosecuted prominent members of the political, military, and economic leadership of Nazi Germany after its defeat in World War II.

It's not about New York City being able to host the trials, New York City can host anything they want but majority of the New Yorkers don’t want this. It's about what is in the best interest of the country and the war on terror or as you would call it, the tragedy of the confusion of people whose religion I would rather not mention snapping and killing innocent people here and abroad. Ever noticed that the terrorists are never bashful about proclaiming their religion or taking responsibility for terror attacks that succeed or come close?

It's about what is in the best interest of those that tragically lost loved ones on 9/11 and it definitely is about not creating opportunities that will expose classified information that helped the Bush administration or any other administration before that in keeping this nation safe from extremists.

Nobody in New York, except at the NBC studios, wants to exercise their fascination with a terrorist at close range. There is sterling stuff in New York and throwing in a terrorist for good measure is a nebulous brave insult.

In this oh, so awkward struggle between common sense and reckless injustice, my desire to give this administration the benefit of the doubt is beginning to forsake me. The assiduity of this administration to heap insult on injury is becoming very difficult to rationalize.

As for the backpedaling and dire warnings to not rush to any quick judgments of actions by terrorists and tiptoeing around words and the fear of offending murderers, our fearless leaders sure have Sir Lancelot whipped to a custard.

The message seems clear enough to any terrorists that may be thinking of making an escape from the clutches of the Obama-Holder munificence: give it up. This is as close to Christmas as a terrorist comes. For now we watch with silent disapprobation at the actions of our Attorney General that seem to rip all sensibility into a million shreds whilst our dear president is out in Asia, safe from the backlash against his Attorney General and bowing to God only knows what.
