9/11 Suspects Seek Show Trial
NEW YORK - The five men facing trial in the Sept. 11 attacks will plead not guilty so that they can air their criticisms of U.S. foreign policy, the lawyer for one of the defendants said Sunday.
Scott Fenstermaker, the lawyer for accused terrorist Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali, said the men would not deny their role in the 2001 attacks but "would explain what happened and why they did it."
The U.S. Justice Departmentannounced earlier this month that Ali and four other men accused of murdering nearly 3,000 people in the nation's deadliest terrorist attack will face a civilian federal trial just blocks from the World Trade Center site.
Ali, also known as Ammar al-Baluchi, is a nephew of professed 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
Mohammed, Ali and the others will explain "their assessment of American foreign policy," Fenstermaker said.

We are all so blessed to live in the most magnificent country in the world and I am so thankful for this fact...but we have a president who has a huge problem with our country and wants to fundamentally transform it..!

@ce - your are wasting your breath. You may as well be talking to the balloon boy's father. That's how out of touch with everyday people Eric Holder is. He has tunnel vision and cares only for his own agenda. Why can't Holder realize that HE is terrorizing millions of America by putting a bullseye on NYC?

Our country cannot afford another terrorist attack. I'm shocked that our president would put our country at great risk again, when our economy is in recession. Mr. President, please rethink your position about this trial in New York City. It will inflame terrorist around the world who hate our country and want to do us harm. Think of the 9/11 families and show them respect they deserve. They are trying to heal from the loss of their family members, it's still fresh in their minds. Don't add to their pain and keep the City of New York safe.
HSI
Now that it has been revealed that the 9/11 terrorists had time to sit down and discuss their thoughts about the upcoming trial...that should be enough for the judge to throw out this trial that should never be allowed to take place. They should all be shot like the dogs that they are.

I think BHO has stooped pretty low here as far as creating distractions. This pretty much tells anyone that was still unsure about him just what he thinks of OUR America. Seems like there's a new energy in the air in say......the last week. What could it be? REAL hope perhaps? No titles just common sense.

Obama WANTS to release his brothers. This will guarantee it. The prosecution (the AG) will see that procedural errors, etc. are abundant. Not Mirandized, etc. The goal is to release them. That couldn't have happened at Gitmo.

The only reason why they should be brought to NY is to have a jury to decide how they want them to be executed. Hanging, shooting, thrown from a building, burned in a building, or wrapped in bacon and thrown in hot oil.

How naive you are. The trial will be worse than a "comedy or errors". There is so much now that has been said, etc to get these TERRORISTS OFF SCOTCH FREE. It is ALSO a way for this ADMINISTRATION to further their agenda of bringing out the CIA and past Gov't and Military officials. YOU ARE BLINDED. THESE ARE ADMITTED TERRORISTS that should NEVER see the light of day for what they have done against US AMERICANS

I wonder how Holder expects to get a "fair and impartial" jury in New York or anywhere else in the United States. If as a prospective juror, I were asked if I would be able to be "fair and impartial" to the defendants, my response would be: "ABSOLUTELY NOT! THEY ARE TERRORISTS WHO ARE NOT ENTITLED TO ANY OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS OF AMERICANS! INSTEAD OF BEING GIVEN A TRIAL, THEY SHOULD SIMPLY BE LINED UP IN A ROW AND BLOWN AWAY!

This is a damn travesty. Obama and Holder had to know this is exactly what would happen. Moreover, they want it to happen so that we Americans can be shown for the evil people we are, and that Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, our CIA can be blamed for the acts of these terrorists. God Help Us ! With leaders like Obama and Holder hell bent on revenge, how can America survive?

Holder has tunnel vision on this whole NY terror trial charade.He obviously
has no sympathy for the families of the 911 victims. All Holder cares about is
pleasing his ACLU cronies by holding a show trial that will wreck the CIA
and create a Bush/ Cheney witch hunt side show in the process.

this clearly shows barrack hussein obamu's sympathy for Muslim terrorist, and how he plans to make this trial make them look like hero's, shame on you obamus, is this part of his radical socialist liberal plans to weahen America , wake up country men

Cheney is saying (on am radio) that he would not put these guys on trial?
How come when he had power- they were never tried by a military commission AND PROSECUTED? I think we would have been on board with that decision.

They tried to bring them to trial through the Military. THE POLITICIANS kept putting up blockades, the DEMOCRATS that is

Try reading all the efforts it took to get through the Supreme Court to be where they finally could be tried in a military tribunal. Thank the ACLU for delaying things.
