Verdict raises hackles over trying terror suspects in civilian courts

By Jerry Seper

The Washington Times

The Justice Department on Thursday said it was committed to a policy of taking some terrorism suspects before civilian courts, although several critics - Republicans and one high-ranking Democrat - said the verdict in the civilian trial of Ahmed Ghailani showed that military commissions were needed to try terrorism detainees.

The commander of the USS Cole when it was attacked by al Qaeda terrorists in 2000 said the verdict against Ghailani - found guilty on only one of 285 counts - represented "a mockery of justice and is further proof that civilian trials for enemy combatants is a foolish and misguided strategy."

Trying blood thirsty terrorists in civilian courts is so wonderful.

Now we get to imprison this monster for many years rather than execute him, which no doubt a military court would have done. But, this way the world will love us and respect us...so says BO, Dunderhead Biden, and Corrupt Holder.

What can we conclude from this? Well, one thing for certain, liberals are mad and liberalism is a mental disorder.

Normally conviction of conspiracy gets you tagged for all the deaths associated with it. Not to this jury. Actually this lone jury member who bucked the will of the rest.
