Why do people feel this way? Because trying war criminal terrorists in regular courts is plain and simple stupid:
Just 35% of New York State voters agree with Attorney General Eric Holder’s decision to try the confessed mastermind of the 9/11 terror attacks and five other suspected terrorists in a civilian court in New York City rather than before a military tribunal.
A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state finds that 55% are opposed to that decision, which is part of the Obama administration’s effort to close the terrorist prison camp at the Guantanamo Naval Base in Cuba.
The only people who were ever for closing Gitmo are the leftists who think that George Bush and Dick Cheney are war criminals – in other words, only idiots and/or those seeking to score political points. Holding the terrorists in Gitmo is an act of mercy on our part – given the nature of this war and the manner in which our enemies fight, we are fully justified in shooting captured terrorists out of hand. They have no rights – irregular forces which are not clearly identifiable as part of a national military force are outside the bounds of civilized warfare. We go the extra mile – because we’re good and decent people – and the left chooses to accuse us of being criminals for so doing.
Idiocy. Sheer idiocy.
And now this sort of thinking is in charge of our Justice Department. Its going to be a rough few years for us until we can get rid of Obama and his clowns.
