There are several ways to view this episode. First...President Hillary would have to appoint special US prosecutors...then unseat the entire DOD event underway right now. DOD wouldn’t care one way or another...they are merely taking orders on this anyway.

So now you’d have around 20 special prosecutors appointed by the justice department...and you could figure at least an entire year for them to get onboard and settled into their job before they could try the cases. Because their entire livelihood depends on the length of this episode...their salaries of $120k a year, and their staffs...you can count on this taking a very long, long time to try a case.

You can also count on some state governor organizing his state police and state attorney general at the base where they will land at...and formerly lay charges there in that state against the guy. The DOD guys and the Feds may not hand the guy over...but they can’t really stop any state from laying in charges. If any state resident has had harm brought to him...by any of these characters...then the state can toss on some kinda of charge. I’m guessing Hillary will be very upset by this state action...but its the way things work.

Finally...after three long years in a Fed jail....most of the cases will be tossed out and the guys will then be stuck. Most countries will refuse them back...so then Hillary has to explain to the public why the US has to accept the guy....permanently....as a resident.

Well who knows, maybe if she has Janet Reno authorizing Wesley Clark and the ATF to arrest them, they may never make it to trial.

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.
But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.
But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.
He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.
A murderer is less to be feared."

-- Marcus Tullius Cicero

So she wants to try the 9/11 plotters in the exact same system which let OJ walk scot free?

Good plan, Hillary!

With ideas like that, is it any wonder her campaign is going down in a ball of fire?

Hillary will engage the ACLU to protect the enemy.
