All have confessed their guilt. The NYC event is simply a show trial to find the guilt of the Bush Administration and prepare for the 2010 elections.

That is irrefutable.

Yet, anyone who has witnessed the modern corruption of our criminal justice system knows that it has been rendered less of a means by which society itself of predators, and more instead, of a game. It is an elaborate game, with lawyers writing the rules, interpreting the rules, and wherever possible, bending them to their immediate purpose.

Do not kid yourself. The Obama Administration's decision to try terrorists as though they were not really terrorists is extremely dangerous one. As David Horowitz writes:

" The decision to try the jihadists in a civilian court is ... a decision which will divulge America’s security secrets to the enemy since civilian courts afford defendants the right of discovery. It is also a propaganda gift to Islamic murderers who will turn the courtroom into a media circus to promote their hatred against the Great Satan — a hatred shared by their apologists at the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the pro-Castro Center for Constitutional Rights who have pioneered the campaign against Guantanamo and whose influence in the Obama Administration is pervasive.

As such, the Obama Administration's decision is a nakedly political one whose chief effect will be to encourage terrorists everywhere to attack civilians.

Note - my second sentence ought to have read:

"Yet, anyone who has witnessed the modern corruption of our criminal justice system knows that it has been rendered less of a means by which society rids itself of predators, and more instead, of a game."

I wish Beck or Rush would do something on the Center for Constitutional rights. Who funds it, who are the head guys, where do they have their offices, what is the history of the people in this organization?
