Obama retreat on war: The return to pre-2001 criminal law mind-set

The war on terror is over. The decision to prosecute the self-proclaimed mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, along with his al Qaeda cohorts, in federal court marks a political watershed. President Obama seeks to return America to a pre-Sept. 11, 2001, mind-set. Terrorism is to be treated - as in the 1990s - as a criminal law enforcement matter.

The administration's decision to hold Mohammed's trial in a New York City civilian court, just a few blocks away from ground zero, is irresponsible and grotesque. Foreign terrorists who commit atrocities against American civilians will be given full constitutional and legal protections. They are to be treated like any common murderer or rapist. This will embolden jihadists to wage more terrorist attacks on U.S. soil.

Ironically, the administration has provided an incentive for Islamists to strike us here rather than abroad. Captured insurgents who have killed American troops in Afghanistan or Iraq are tried under military commissions. Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. has announced that the perpetrators of the 2000 attack on the USS Cole, which killed 17 American sailors, will be tried in a military tribunal. Yet the Sept. 11 terrorists are held to different standards.

This is part of the movement to One World, by the One. He’s taking the monetary system down...the dollar will fail and we’ll move to a single international currrency...that Obama and the international elites will revalue.

Hang on folks, it’s gonna be a wild ride.

Wait, didn't he end the war in March of 2008?
That is precisely what he promised the kool-aid drinkers:

"It's time to admit that no amount of American lives can resolve the political disagreement that lies at the heart of someone else's civil war.

That's why I have a plan that will bring our combat troops home by March of 2008.

Let the Iraqis know... letting the Iraqis know that we will not be there forever is our last best hope to pressure the Sunnis and Shia to come to the table and find peace."
