back at that US Criminal Court trial thing, the bozos still don't comprehend that reasonable doubt standard even after the last enemy terrorist they did this with (and only one they tried) was found innocent on 74 out of 75 charges
so the accused's face was covered, and there were bullets whizzing by your head as you were running for cover with people next to you being shot, yet you can positively ID him from 100 yards? oh really?
or maybe the key witness can't testify, he's dead
or maybe the special forces involved in the capture can't testify, he's under cover
or maybe one witness's testimony gets thrown out, he was justifiably scared shitless
these guys just don't stop, our enemies laugh at them

Psychotic would apply to you not me. Yes, I have more of a clue than the President. It seems he and I find out everything at the same time by watching the news. Get real loser. I would never have traded a deserter for 5 Taliban leaders that is for sure. I would not have allowed Benghazi to come down without doing everything I could to come the aid of those in danger. And I would have never promised Hope and Change and to have the most transparent administration ever without backing it up. Oh well what difference does it make. You do not have a clue loser.
nope, we have military tribunals for enemy combatants
military judges and members as opposed to, well, the potential to have really stupid people like scum judging him
2/3 convicts defendant as opposed to one idiot setting a violent man free (and no, I'm not even talking about our President's recent trades here)
Miranda rights not necessary. I wonder if the Special Forces that tracked him down read him those rights? I'm thinking that's not what they're trained to do

Obama never has had a major accomplishment, he's a poor excuse for a American & its apparent that you show more devotion to Obama than a saint might show to God. Pretty weird!
So is this how it went down: Obama skillfully watching his prey like a tiger like an able commander who knows his business and attends to it. His plan was formed, his men were ready and he waited for the right moment to spring upon his unsuspecting prey. In your mind only!
And lookie, lookie here.

Ahmed abu Khattalah, the suspected ringleader of the attack in Benghazi who was just captured by U.S. forces, said he was motivated by the anti-Islam online video made in America.
In private conversations, Khattala told other Libyans during the night of the attack that he was moved to attack the diplomatic mission to take revenge for an insult to Islam in an American-made online video.

Ahmed abu Khattalah, the suspected ringleader of the attack in Benghazi who was just captured by U.S. forces, said he was motivated by the anti-Islam online video made in America.
In private conversations, Khattala told other Libyans during the night of the attack that he was moved to attack the diplomatic mission to take revenge for an insult to Islam in an American-made online video.
The New York Times reports:
An earlier demonstration venting anger over the video outside the American Embassy in Cairo had culminated in a breach of its walls, and it dominated Arab news coverage. Mr. Abu Khattala told both fellow Islamist fighters and others that the attack in Benghazi was retaliation for the same insulting video, according to people who heard him.
In an interview days after the attack, he pointedly declined to say whether he believed an offense such as the anti-Islamic video might indeed warrant the destruction of the diplomatic mission or the killing of the ambassador. “From a religious point of view, it is hard to say whether it is good or bad.
Every right wing talking point has been blown out of the water today. Watch how they spin this because it doesn’t fit their narrative. Darrell Issa is probably in a fetal position in the corner of his office, sucking his thumb right now.In an interview days after the attack, he pointedly declined to say whether he believed an offense such as the anti-Islamic video might indeed warrant the destruction of the diplomatic mission or the killing of the ambassador. “From a religious point of view, it is hard to say whether it is good or bad.

The suspected ringleader of the deadly 2012 Benghazi attacks, who was captured by U.S. forces over the weekend, was actually interviewed by multiple media outlets last year — a stunning revelation that could raise questions over why it took the U.S. so long to arrest the man.
Ahmed Abu Khattala, a leader of the Benghazi branch of the terror group Ansar al-Sharia in Libya, was captured by American special forces in Libya Sunday for his suspected involvement in planning the fatal Sept. 11, 2012, assault that left four people dead, including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
But Abu Khattala, whom the U.S. had charged for the crime last summer but didn’t apprehend until now, has conducted multiple media interviews with U.S. outlets in recent months and years, with reporters claiming he wasn’t hard to find.
Last August, CNN’s Arwa Dawson interviewed Abu Khattala for two hours “in public at a coffee shop of a well-known hotel” in Benghazi, she explained during the segment.
“For a suspected terrorist, who may have been involved in the murder of four Americans, he’s really not that difficult to find,” Dawson said during her report, adding that Abu Khattala “seemed to be confident, his demeanor most certainly not that of a man who believed he was going to be detained or targeted any time soon.”
In the audio interview, Abu Khattala, through a translator, didn’t deny he was at the compound the night of the attack, but said the gunfire and chaos had already erupted before he arrived.
“When we withdrew, there was shooting with medium guns … and people panicked and we tried to control traffic,” he said.
Abu Khattala also claimed he was never contacted by U.S. or Libyan authorities, even though U.S. officials confirmed last August that they had charged Abu Khattala with helping to plan the attack.
In an interview with The New York Times from October 2012, Abu Khattala appeared to strike a more defiant tone.
“Why is the United States always trying to impose its ideology on everyone else?” he told Times reporter David Kirkpatrick, in a rant suggesting the U.S. had only itself to blame for terrorist attacks. “Why is it always trying to use force to implement its agendas?”
Abu Khattala went on, during his interview with The Times, to accuse U.S. lawmakers of using the Benghazi attack to “(play) with the emotions of the American people” and “to gather votes for their elections.”
He denied, however, that he was part of the attack that night, claiming that he had only entered the compound toward the end of the battle.
Witnesses of the attack had repeatedly told authorities that they saw Abu Khattala leading other fighters at the compound the night of the attack.
The U.S. charged Abu Khattala and several others in a sealed complaint filed last year in U.S. District Court in Washington that formally accused him of providing, attempting and conspiring to provide material support to terrorists that resulted in death; discharging, brandishing, using, carrying and possessing a firearm during a crime of violence; and killing a person in the course of an attack on a federal facility and conspiring to do so.

if I hadn't just actually seen Mitchy Mac say this on TV I wouldn't have believed ANY politician would be this stupid (and yet graham joined in on it...). You want to try this fella in a US Federal Court, eh? They might want to look up the rights of foreign nationals that are set to be tried in a US Court. Bizarre politicians...
“There has been a tendency in this administration, as you know read them their rights and get them a lawyer,” Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said. “I hope they’re not doing that.”
“It would be the biggest mistake for the ages to read this guy his Miranda rights. We should have some quality time with this guy -- weeks and months,” Lindsey Graham said

Sometime I wonder about events.
Why they happen on a particular day in history.
Take Abu Khattala as a case in point. He’s been running around Benghazi in plain sight for almost two years.
He has even been interviewed on a couple of occasions.
Yet just a day or so ago he was taken into custody.
Why now? Why not two years ago?
And why is he being tried in civilian court when he is not a civilian? Why will he be afforded an attorney and granted 5th amendment rights?
I’m sure Goudy will be allowed to here his testimony on the night of the Benghazi attack, or will he?
What will be hidden from the American people if Abu Khattala decides to invoke the 5th Amendment?
To me this is just another smell test that the administration has failed to pass.
