Holder: ‘I Was Right’ on Holding 9/11 Trial in NYC ByDevlin Barrett
Attorney General Eric Holder said Monday that the slow pace of the military commission trial of the accused 9/11 plotters shows he was right four years ago to try to put those suspects on trial in New York City.
The trial of those defendants, including the alleged mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, is still enmeshed in pre-trial hearings, and the trial itself is not expected to begin for at least another year.
It was four years ago that Mr. Holder announced Mr. Mohammed and his accused co-conspirators being held at a U.S. military facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba would be put on trial in federal court in lower Manhattan. That decision came under attack first by Republicans in Congress and later political leaders in New York. Eventually the Obama administration retreated and agreed to put them on trial in the military system at Guantanamo.
Asked about the reversal of his decision at an unrelated press conference Monday, Mr. Holder was adamant he had made the right call.
Politics, he said, got in the way of the right legal decision and the right national security decision.
If the men had been sent to New York for trial, Mr. Holder said, “the defendants would be on death row as we speak.”

By the way, WHERE'S THE EVIDENCE THE AP WAS EVER SPIED ON BY THE DOJ? THERE ISN'T ANY, but it sure tricked people into thinking the WH wasn't JUST targeting conservatives like the IRS was. Oh wait, and the NSA killing Romney's 'ORCA' too!
Shut up, erich holer.
Thanks Sub-Driver.

Has Holder ever been right on any major decision?
The holder and little barry would just as soon release any and all terror suspects, but calculate that it may be just a little over the top.
For now.
