On Wednesday, November 18, 2009, Attorney General Eric Holder will attempt to explain his decision to bring war criminal Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to trial in Manhattan's federal courtroom six blocks from Ground Zero.
This is our Action Alert to you:
Americans, it is time to unite, not as Republicans or Democrats, not as Conservatives or Liberals or Progressives.It is time to unite as CITIZENS.
President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder have forgotten that their chief duty is the safety and the security of the American people.
IT IS TIME FOR US TO REMIND THEM.
AG Eric Holder will appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, November 18, to testify about the administration’s plan to bring Khalid Sheikh Mohammed back to the scene of Al Qaeda’s greatest single atrocity–Ground Zero–where he will brag about the slaughter of 3,000 innocent men, women and children and his lawyers will tell a “jury of his peers” that HE is a victim of the U.S. Government.
This is insanity.
Please join 9/11 Families for a Safe & Strong America, firefighters of TheBravest.com and Keep America Safe in Washington, D.C. to tell Eric Holder and members of Congress,
“WE WILL FIGHT YOU ALL THE WAY!”
We know this is short notice….but that’s how the Administration planned it…they are counting on you just sitting this out, yelling at the cable news coverage of this outrage instead of showing up and changing the narrative in the MSM echo chamber.
Where: Dirksen Senate Office Building, Room G-50 Constitution Avenue and 1st Street, NE U.S. Capitol, Washington, D.C.
When: Wednesday, November 18, 9:30 am
Who: Attorney General Eric Holder (testimony)
9/11 Families for a Safe &K Strong America is partnering with KeepAmericaSafe.com and theBravest.com in this effort.
Note: 100,000 people have co-signed our letter to President Obama.
They should be tried by a jury of ordinary Americans and then...EXECUTED like the common criminals they are.
( President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder have forgotten that their chief duty is the safety and the security of the American people. IT IS TIME FOR US TO REMIND THEM. )
This statement assumes that these people actually believed that the citizens safety was their chief duty or their duty at all.
Nothing either has done this past year would indicate that was a correct assumption.
They havent forgotten their primary duty is to protect Americans, they just dont consider that their primary duty.
Neither of these clowns has a clue as to how to do their job. This is waht happens when you have an affirmative action President.
I am suspecting that the administration wants to throw the trial and this scum be back out on the street. It would be consisted with the America hate prevalent in this administration and the Groveler in Chief.
Holder told us, in essence, that he’s sure he’ll be able to get a conviction on KSB wherever he’s tried.
Don’t know about you folks, but I’ve got a wee bit of suspicion about the judgment of an attorney general who refuses to bring about an indictment of a politically-connected & corrupt governor of New Mexico; refuses to bring an indictment of members of a politically-protected pressure group caught on tape physically intimidating potential voters at a polling place; and who once served as Marc Rich’s buttboy in shady contributions-for-pardon scandal at the tail end of the Clinton era.
Make no mistake -it’s the former adminstiration that he wants to put on trial. That is his plan.
In chaos, there is opportunity —
This just may be the issue that we can use to bring down the Obama Administration....
obama vs the world...
BS!
They are not ordinary criminals.
They are war criminals and enemy combatants. And should be treated as such in the war Al Queda and Osama Bin Laden and Islamic Jihadists have declared on America.
They do not deserve the rights of Americans. But that is what you and Obama want to give them as a gift for attacking America.
How is an attack on the Pentagon a civilian crime?
It isn’t.
Obama and terrorist sympathizer Eric Holder are wrong, but then Obama did say in his book, when the political winds shift, he would stand Muslim.
You must be joking! They are not ordinary criminals and as such do not deserve any constitutional rights.
They are war criminals and enemy combatants and should be tried by military tribunal.
maybe he will explain how it is mostly his own law firm that will be defending them, and how the TAXPAYERS will be paying for their defense
I think this is a big gamble for Obama, though I don’t credit the guy for having any stones, I maintain that he continues to be clueless. He thinks he is isolated because this is Holder’s game.
There are so many wild cards at play. So many things that could potentially go sideways.
If anything goes wrong at this show in the AM the impeachment proceedings will begin after lunch.
....and an affirmative action AG
That’s the way it works.
You elect an affirmative action President and he appoints his buddies.
Great. Because I have yet to hear his justification for NOT having military trials. I’ve heard his reasoning about why he wants civilian trials, but never heard why military trials are off the table.
IMO, the argument isn’t and shouldn’t be about whether or not the USA/NY can “handle” all aspects of these cases (though they’d like to make it that), but rather WHY, specifically, they chose against and justify NOT having military trials.
One might think that Holder would lose his job over this, but Reno didn’t lose hers over Waco, Elian Gonzalez and foreign donorgate, so Holder is no doubt safe.
