No, justice would be best served by a bullet dipped in bacon fat.

3:1 for military court.

Only because they didn't ask:

[...] Civilian Court
[...] Military Tribunal
[X] Fire Ants

I will reserve the full answer to that question until I see whether KSM is charged with a capital crime or not. If he is, I suspect he would be begging for military justice since the people of New York are very likely to treat sentence him to death.

This is the worst Friday the 13th since all those Knights Templar were killed that started this whole superstition in the first place.

Do you suppose they made this evil, symbolic announcement today on purpose?

I like the traditional method. Tie an anchor to his ankle and toss him into the river. If he drowns, he’s innocent and we’ll have to offer him a sincere apology.

What if it's a hung jury, or worse, what if he walks? Virtually anything and everything he said while in captivity, and any information that was developed from things he said, will be inadmissible. I bet that's a LOT of evidence.

What does Obama do if the jury doesn't convict either KSM, or one of the others? And, let's not forget that no other country is going to take them back. And, even if they did, KSM's defense team would easily be able to fight extradition on the grounds that he might be tortured in whatever country would have him back. Is some federal judge going to order his release? Or, is he going to be stuck in some kind of legal limbo in perpetuity. And if so, where?

This is a mess and I only hope that Obama comes to regret it without the death of additional Americans.

That's pretty much how I feel about it, especially since this tradition involves the Crusader Knights and their utter downfall through political intrigue.

Well, while it's clear Obama's understanding of American history doesn't start until sometime around 1964, it's equally clear that he has an excellent understanding of African and Islamic history going back centuries. So, yes, I think that there's a reasonable chance that the announce on today - a day that probably resonates in the Arab/Muslim world - was completely intentional.

It is time to seriously consider impeachment of Obama on the grounds of being being incompetent.
Holder should also be arrested for being a terrorist.

Apache justice - add honey smeared on the face and buried up to his neck in pig manure.

Justice for KSM would be best served by a giant deep-frier filled with melted lard.

I’m sure once some idiot fed judge dismiss the case and releases them they will be quickly hunted down and taken care of.

Fox news is reporting that they are asking for the death penalty for the head goat fornicator, and four others are to be tried for the same crime(s).
By the time a typically limp wristed federal judge gets done $hitcanning all of the prosecution’s evidence the head goat fornicator will probably get a summary judgement for dismissal with prejudice, and walk out of the door. That’s probably what his control, the great zero, and holder are hoping for. If he’s convicted, I’m pretty sure there will be no death penalty, and in the unlikely event there is, it’ll take 20 years to get around to it.

KSM about to become a professor of education — scot free on technicalities — like fellow Jihadis Ayers and Dohrn.

In the new Obama America — being a shahid and jahadi is a ticket to wealth and fame, not some terrible crime. Ayers and Dohrn were Marxist Jihadis, KSM a Muslim one. As we watch the two religions become joined by Jihad — Marx and Mohammed, mmm mmm mmm!
