It appears that the Obama administration is finally seeing the NY terror trials for what they are—a complete and total disaster. Eric Holder seems to have made the decision by himself. Yeah, right! Like that would ever happen. It only took 4 months or so for the Obama group to finally hear the American people, and the New Yorkers that would be directly affected, and are now scouting new locations for the terror trials. I swear, I may have no experience running something as big as the country, the most powerful country on the planet, but even I realized immediately that trying the 9/11 masterminds in a civil court on American soil was a huge mistake. What an amateur move that was!
One problem is the estimated $200,000,000 for the trial in a civilian setting. Why not try them in a military court, or tribunal, like you do all foreign combatants and save that money? You see, if you use the military to do the trial, you don’t have the huge overhead cost. Military personnel are already on the payroll. You don’t have extra expense. And try them in Gitmo. It’s already set up for this. Since when is it OK to take into account the opinions of our enemy when it comes to keeping this country safe? Who gives a frak if they are offended that Gitmo is still open and used? I don’t.
One thing to realize is that our constitution does not apply to everyone on the planet. Our founding fathers intended for our constitutional rights to be applicable to U.S. citizens only. That’s the only way the document makes any sense. You don’t believe me? Then you haven’t read it. Bringing those foreign combatants to our soil and giving them our U.S. rights is insane. It makes no sense whatsoever. As for declaration of war—they did declare war on us. They have, and do, attack our military. They are foreign combatants. Why can’t Obama see this? Oh yeah, amateurism. There has never been a greener amateur in the White House. He has no clue what he’s doing and this is but one single example of that fact. Let’s all vow to make him a one term president. The office of the President of the United States is no place for on the job training. And it’s no place for a socialist. But that’s a discussion for another blog.
That’s my opinion and I welcome yours.
