Page 2 of 2 Back USS Cole suspect charges dropped Believed to be mastermind of attack on Navy ship Eli Lake and Stephen Dinan, THE WASHINGTON TIMES Friday, February 6, 2009 Comment Print Font Size Share Got a Question? You Report Click-2-Listen Buzz up!The al-Nashiri trial was the last one still ongoing Thursday night because Col. James L. Pohl, the chief judge of the Guantanamo Bay War Crimes court, refused to abide by the executive orders.
Peter Gadiel, whose son died in the Sept. 11 attacks and who runs 9/11 Families for a Secure America, will attend the Friday meeting. He said he expected about 30 family members of victims to be there.
He said if Mr. Obama does close the detention facility and have trials in U.S. courts, some terrorists will go free and, he predicted, take part in more terrorist plots.
"When they commit terrorist acts, the blood of the victims will be on his hands," Mr. Gadiel said of Mr. Obama

It will break your heart.
Terrorism: Politicians and Victims.

Hmm - a planned delay, then. But what are they waiting for... Godot?
Reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit. I’ll try again. Crawford started this garbage during the Bush administration. Did zero order that also???? Of course the overall closing Gitmo policy and future body count is all on zero but there is no reason this DOD bureaucrat should not be called out in this fiasco.
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Barack Hussein Obama.
You can go throw up now.
She had a choice?
To be fair to Crawford, no, she did not, it was going to happen regardless. She perhaps even pulled the rug from under Pres_ent Oh, Bummer by doing it *before* the meeting with the families, when his plan was to do it after...

While that clause is there, Jeff, read it carefully. It says "legal". What gives them the legal authority to issue orders, and determines which orders may be legal, or not? The Constitution does, and the *first* loyalty in the oath is rightly, to the Constitution, even for enlisted men. It is tops in the order of precedence.
Substituting a direct oath to the office of the Presidency, or making such a loyalty above the loyalty to the Constitution the precedent, is a radical departure, and not a good thing, in my book...

I have been bulimic since Nov.

Curse of the lilly livered blue lipped loser Precedent is upon us all !
Doom on Obamanites !
I’m almost at a loss for words about this. Obama should be impeached. NOW.
WE HAVE TO START A PETITION. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. WE CAN NOT LET THIS GO. I AM STARTING BY RESIGNING MY OFFICER COMMISSION IN LESS THAN 1 YEAR. I AM ALSO GOING TO PETITION THE CLOSING OF GITMO AND THIS ACT. MTF.
I agree, it’s spiraling out of control so fast it makes my head spin. We have to do something NOW. Let our voices be heard, don’t let the MSM keep hiding these things and candy coating them.
Wherever the next terrorist attack happens in this country I sincerely hope that 0 is there too.
Pray
It was a Bush/Gates appointee that did this.
NO it was NOT. Obama want the trial stopped, the military judge told him NO. He dropped the charges.
On Jan 29, it came to light that NObama is demanding that all of the military swear their oath of allegience to the PRESIDENT instead of to the CONSTITUTION.
I thought that was a rumor. Can you provide a credible link please?
going out of his way to demoralize the troops in taking this action.
Bingo!! He wants his own army, loyal to him, the rest will be easy. Kiss America as we know and love her bye bye.
. If he tried, there would be a rebelllion in the ranks and civil war.
I agree. If this turns out to be true, there will be no other option.
It break my heart and I will probably cry for a while. obama is a despicable evil man.
President Obama I refused your invitation to meet with with you because I knew what you were going to do. Drop the charges against al-Nashiri, and stop the trial which we were getting ready to leave for today. I want you to know that your actions broke my wifes heart. I sat and watched her cry all nite long out of frustration, anger, and emotional pain. Again. I should be used to this but I am not. I have had to watch her cry before when Saleh of Yemen freed our sons killers. When President Clinton refused to take any action against the killers. And when President Bush refused to quit our country’s support of Yemen. And when the Justice Department refused to honor the Federal Court Ruling Against the Sudan which helped to murder our son. And numerous other times when our government ignored our plight. Will the Cole Victims and their familes ever recieve justice? I am begining to realize now that we never will have justice unless that justice is politically convenient.
Absolutely. I feel the exact same. This is truly sickening, but no surprise from a guy who couldn't even find his Birth Certificate. Pathetic and sad. Unbelievable.
