Terrorists to NYC

Today I want to talk about the latest of many BRILLIANT decisions that have been made by this new and progressive regime running the show. In case you haven't seen any news today, you may be unaware that 5 terrorists--including the 9-11 mastermind and the bomber of the USS Cole are to be relocated from Cuba to the heart of NYC. There are so many things wrong with this I am almost at a loss as to where I begin.

Let's see who the "face" of this decision is: Eric Holder-the Attorney General of the USA. Appointed by his fellow radical and friend-BO. One of his first items of business was to re-open an investigation of how the CIA handled interrogation of terrorism suspects like those listed above. These CIA people had already been investigated and cleared of any wrongdoing BEFORE Bush left office. However, to score points with his ultra-liberal base, BO let Holder re-open the case. Then, the Big Guy himself said there was NOTHING he could do to stop his buddy Holder from his chosen course. I know, just a small lie among the many he has spewed since taking office. Do either of them truly think the average citizen gives two craps about the interrogation techniques and whether or not the terrorists are being treated well enough? I guarantee they were treated better in Cuba than most of their living conditions in the caves of Afghanistan.

Next, these killers ARE NOT AMERICAN CITIZENS!!!!! The constitution and the laws and right it delineates are for the citizens of the USA, not for terroristic killers who want all of us dead. WHY are they allowed to set foot on our soil? Why do they get the trial rights of a citizen? Who will benefit from any of this? Why add to the security concerns that already face NYC by IMPORTING international pieces of trash like these guys?

I am extremely worried and concerned about how these trials will unfold. I know they will try any and all delay techniques that they can in order to keep costing taxpayers more money. They will be laughing at the stupidity and the ignorance of the people running this nation. The only thing these folks get is a show of force. Maybe if Bush would have been a bit more involved these scumbags could have been tried and executed before this new administration took over.

Finally, think of all the survivors of the 9-11 attacks and all those who lost loved ones. What does this course of action tell these people--who are American citizens? I think it says that the rights of enemy combatants are just as important as the rights of citizens. Imagine if Bin Laden had been arrested. Would Barry have advocated bringing him to the USA for a trial?

Dear Sheri,

Fantastic, passionate and intelligent hub. I am outraged over this latest development. This idiotic, insensitive and stupid decision will open the door to untold misery. It is entirely possible that these animals can walk away. They are not, in my view, entitled to the rights of American citizens. If they enter US prisons, no doubt they will be considered heroes and will probably recruit new members to terrorism. What a travesty.. Keep Gitmo open and let them rot in hell.....

Sheri,

You just about said it all and you said it very well. The ultimate irony is the five terrorist have already pleaded guilty in their Gitmo trial. Now we are going to have the specticle of starting all over again with no guarantee they will be found guilty. It's entirely possible they will get off on a technicality.

How can he be tried, he was not read his rights. He is not a US citizen, and our laws do not pertain to him. Our court system has no way of prosecuting this type of action.

Keep on Hubbing.
