[snip] According to the indictment from March 2001, Ghailani also conspired with Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden and other Qaeda members to kill Americans.

By whose authority can Erick Holder or Obama act in such a Hugo Chavez manner? We now have a dictator?

The terrorist will be freed and BOOM there goes NY again. And the liberal leftists will deny all culpability (they’re good at that).

SCOTUS said they have the right. Now it’s being played out.

And so now your average terrorist has more rights than the American soldier who catches him. Great.

Throw the puke in to the general populace in a N.Y. city jail like RIKERS and he’ll be begging to go back to GITMO.

Some may be impossible to prosecute, as their evidence may be inadmissible in court due to interrogation methods branded by critics as torture. However, they might also be deemed too dangerous to release.

Also - if captured by military personnel were they read their rights? Were they immediately offered council? Did they receive a swift hearing?
If not they will be released, our civilian courts will have no choice.

So...0bama and 0bamunists DO have a plan. Sneak them into the country, one at a time...

Friggin’ ingenious. And, just what I would expect from this arrogant, anti-Constitutional gasbag.

It’s time to take back the country.

0bama is an idiot.
All it will take is one smart conservative on the jury to find this guy not guilty, and then he walks and 0bama and the Democrats are finished politically.
