An explosive allegation about destroyed evidence threatens to unravel the already shaky military tribunal for the alleged architect of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Attorneys for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed are calling on the judge and the entire prosecution team in Mohammed’s military commission at Guantánamo Bay to step down from the long-running case over what a member of the defense team called “at least the appearance of collusion” that led to the government apparently secretly destroying information relevant to the premier post-9/11 tribunal.
The defense team further argues that the destruction of evidence ought to spell the end of Mohammed’s military trial entirely, a development that would leave the Obama administration and its successor to come up with an entirely new plan for what to do with the top terror suspect in US custody.

Shoot him in the head. Bury him in pig offal.
Be done with it

They are in Cuba, right?
Take him down to the beach, shoot him in both legs, take him for a short boat ride and feed him to the sharks.
The Guardian should be ashamed of itself stereotyping an allegation of as "explosive" being that it came on behalf of a Muslim. Shame shame shame.

When you cant pound the facts, pound the law.
When you can't pound the law or the facts,...
pound the table!
This is pounding the table.
Don’t want to up set all that Saudi campaign financing and out and out bribery.
Yep, the lawyers got nothing so they’re making noise so it looks like they’re accomplishing something.

This tribunal is making us look inept and week. How many years does it take to conclude the trial of an obviously guilty terrorist? I always assumed that the military would be a far superior place to conduct these trials—fair, but quick. They have been involved with this case for years, and the start of trial is nowhere in sight. Apparently the military allows itself to be tied in knots by stalling tactics every bit as much as the civilian courts.
Should have been executed a long long time ago.
KSM should never have been brought back alive. That was mistake #1.
