[Video & Transcript] Obama Past Blast: Khalid Shaikh Mohammed Will Get ‘Full Military Trial’

Posted by: velvethammer in Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Obama

Let me respond to a couple of points that have been made on the other side. You will hear opponents of this amendment say it will give all kinds of rights to terrorist masterminds, such as Khalid Shaikh Mohammed. But that is not true. The irony of the underlying bill as it is written is that someone like Khalid Shaikh Mohammed is going to get basically a full military trial, with all of the bells and whistles. He will have counsel, he will be able to present evidence, and he will be able to rebut the Government’s case. The feeling is that he is guilty of a war crime and to do otherwise might violate some of our agreements under the Geneva Conventions. I think that is good, that we are going to provide him with some procedure and process. I think we will convict him, and I think he will be brought to justice. I think justice will be carried out in his case.

    Liar ,Liar pants on FIRE! Does Obama ever listen to what he says or does. He just can’t remember the lies he’s tells ?
    People wake up and ask this man “who are you working for ?It’s Not the American people,demand he show us proof he’s an American because i can’t tell.I don’t think any American can either. OMG O= Obama M= Must G= Go and Obama stands for O=One B=Big A =AZZ m= Mistake A= America?
    The longer he stays in the white house the more damage he will do?He’s a boy with hard money pulling the strings and it doesn’t matter where he gets his money from.
