A year is too long to spend at a crime scene with people shooting at you.
Attorney General Eric Holder made an "unannounced" visit with Assistant U.S. Attorneys in Manhattan yesterday about the planned prosecution there of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four additional 9/11 conspirators. Also yesterday, NBC New York spot polling indicated that 82% became furious when word leaked "a federal grand jury in New York is [secretly] now hearing evidence and testimony" as prosecutors seek a federal indictment of the five. Perhaps coincidentally, one 9/11 family member's commentary appeared and offered, "In four years, America can hold Obama accountable."
In total, federal prosecutions during the 1990s convicted two dozen for the first bombing of the World Trade Center, Landmark plot, and the 1998 embassy bombings in Africa.

By that time, Obama and subsequently, his AG, could very well be out of office.
If the trial is not underway during the presidential campaign, halting the trial and moving it back to military justice, might be a huge wedge issue.
Once indicted, brought here, and arraigned, we are committed down a dangerous road. This has to be stopped be it reaches that point.
**I am surprised some Liberal Judge hasnt let them go on bail.**
I’m even MORE surprised some judge hasn’t ALREADY Dismissed the case due to not having been read their rights.
