Video: Reactions To Obama Administration’s Decision To Try Terrorists In NYC

A clearly disgusted Krauthammer charges that terrorist show trials amount to the second half of the 9/11 terror attack.

These are strong words coming from Krauthammer, and all the more devastating because he is absolutely correct. The decision to try the 9/11 terrorists not only on American soil, but just a few blocks away from the attack is a travesty.

Video via Hot Air:

Karl Rove strongly protested on O’Reilly  pointing  out that the same “outside pressures” that held up the military tribunals were recruited by Holder’s justice Dept. and that this  is the result of a “longstanding plot by a bunch of left-wing lawyers who do not love America, who want to undermine our cause in the global war on terror, who opposed the military tribunals…”

The Rove portion of the video starts at 2:35:

And finally Rudy Giuliani, the Mayor of NYC on 9/11 could not be more against this, calling it an irresponsible decision:

Part I:

Part II:

After 9/11, we said “never again”, but now we’re making all the same stupid mistakes that led to the attack.

Debra Burlingame, the sister of Chic Burlingame, the American Airlines pilot of one of the planes hijacked on Sept. 11 is furious, as are many other 9/11 families. The Politico reports:

She said more than 300 family members have implored the administration not to move the trial to New York. “They know we don’t support this. We support military commissions but they are going to see a wave of fury, and I don’t think they’re prepared for it,” she said Friday after the decision became public.

She cuts to the chase:

“This is all going to be about waterboarding and talking about how they were ‘tortured.’ Their lawyers are going turn these people into victims,” she said.

I didn’t know this:

“When he was captured in Pakistan, his first response to the first question was, I’ll talk to you in NY with my lawyer,” she said. “They’re going to exult in the deaths of 200 people and the suffering of their families just blocks from where the parts of their bodies were found … This is a travesty and we will regret this day.” (I think the 200 is a typo for 2000.)

I’ve regretted most days of this Presidency, but this one is right up there.

UPDATE:

Want to turn anger into action? Michelle Malkin is pushing this petition:

See here for a petition to the president.

If this White House thought Tea Party activists were an “angry mob,” wait until they see the backlash from 9/11 family members and their supporters nationwide. We’re not going to sit down and shut up about the reckless, security-undermining Obama 9/10 agenda and conflict-of-interest-ridden AG Eric Holder.

Call them out.
