“’Lady Al Qaeda’s’ lawyers angry over extra security checks at court where she’s on trial” BY ALISON GENDAR DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

SNIPPET: “Lawyers for the so-called “Lady Al Qaeda” are up in arms because spectators at her trial have to show identification and sign in.

The extra security check comes on top of a metal detector placed outside the doorway of the Manhattan courtroom where Aafia Siddiqui is on trial for attempted murder.

Her defense team said Thursday the precautions are depriving her of a fair trial.”

SNIPPET: “”If they have a Zionist or Israeli background...they are all mad at me,” said Aafia Siddiqui, a U.S.-trained neuroscientist charged with attempted murder.

“I have a feeling everyone here is them - subject to genetic testing....They should be excluded if you want to be fair,” she told Manhattan Federal Judge Richard Berman.”

SNIPPET: “Berman ruled the jury can hear about the target list and other handwritten notes but tossed as evidence the chemicals and mass-produced documents from “how-to” terror manuals.

Prosecutors also are barred from bringing up Siddiqui’s alleged ties or sympathies with Al Qaeda because they would create a bias.”

And this is just a small case. Imagine the super sick circus that will happen when the “big fish” terrorist come to a civil court.This is absurd and it make us all look like idiots.I CAN NOT BELIEVE no one is fighting the plan to try these cases in a civil court. Aren’t all these morons in congress lawyers. Has no one any balls to fight this farce?
