President Obama Likely to Order Military Commission Charges Dropped Against Terrorist Suspect Al-Nashiri Friday

ABC News has learned that on Friday, President Obama will likely order the Department of Defense's Military Commission to withdraw charges against terrorist suspect Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri. The charges may later be reinstated in a military commission or pursued in a civilian court. Al-Nashiri will remain in custody.

The announcement will not be made until after President Obama meets with the families of victims of terrorist attacks on 9/11 and on the U.S.S. Cole, where he will assure them that this step is not being done to be lenient towards al-Nashiri.

The move is being done to stop the continued prosecution of al-Nashiri in a court system that his administration may ultimately find illegitimate, not for any other reason, sources told ABC News.

THIS IS SHAMEFUL. I hope he gets such an earful from the families that his sleep is ruined for weeks. So much for MichelleO's outreach to military families. On FNC now .. the Commander of the USS Cole has been invited to the White House tomorrow for this meeting.

Beyond sick.

He dares because he is dumb as a rock! He has no idea what he is unleashing. Americans everywhere should be outraged!

God rest the souls of the heroes who died.

Thank you for posting the names of these brave men!

It brought the tears and the prayers to the surface. That’s all we can do now I suppose...is weep for our country and pray.

Hm. Funny how the sources went out of their way to say that.

I’m almost sick to my stomach. My God what have we allowed to sit in our White House? My heart breaks for out brave troops. They must feel lost.
