Civilian Trial Ends The War Against Islamofacsist Terror

It appears that the Dear Leader, President Obama, is officially ending the War Against Islamofacsist Terror by the trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammad in civilian court in New York City.
As noted by the Michael Mukasey, the last Attorney General in the Bush 43 administration, what a trial of Mohammad and his cohorts in federal does is give them a platform.
A platform for what?
To spout off their insidious radical Islamic ideology. To gloat about what they did to the United States on September 11, 2001. And to promise more of the same.
That is but the tip of the iceberg as to why this maybe the worst decision of the Dear Leader's administration to date.
While the current Attorney General, Eric Holder, seems to believe that the case is air tight and worthy to be tried in a civilian court, the risks outweigh the cost to be politically correct. Holder told reporters, "I am quite confident that the outcomes in these cases will be successful ones."
Hmm, maybe it is living in California and in the Los Angeles area that brings enormous doubt to that possibility. I mean, there is the vaunted jury that took all but four hours to acquit O. J. Simpson. And another jury to acquit another has been actor, Robert Blake, in the murder of his wife.
But, look at a point made by former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy:

Moreover, KSM has no defense. He was under American indictment for terrorism for years before there ever was a 9/11, and he can't help himself but brag about the atrocities he and his fellow barbarians have carried out.

And this is also worth noting:

So: We are now going to have a trial that never had to happen for defendants who have no defense.

Yes, we are!
Because it is important for the Dear Leader, President Obama, to salve his own embarrassment. That the nation he claims to love, the United States of America, went way to far in prosecuting a war against the forces of terror. That if it takes dragging the dregs of the horror of 9/11, Mohammad and four of his cohorts now in custody, it is alright. Because airing what he perceives as dirty laundry is of great importance.
What makes this decision even more bizarre is that Mr. Holder announced at the same time that those in custody for the bombing of the USS Cole in 2000 would be tried as well. In a military tribunal.
What is different about the two cases? Are the lives of those serving in the armed forces such that those who kill them can be tried in a military tribunal? Does it mean that 3,000 civilians have to go through the horrific events of 9/11 again? That they have to suffer because everything is fair game in a civilian court?
Let us not forget that the civilian forces, police and the FBI will be the ones providing security for the federal court house. There is the possibility of more and spectacular terror acts. And even some to force the government to release Mohammad and company.
What this shows is that this president wants to end the War Against Islamofacsist Terror in failure and full-throttle retreat.
God help this Great Land.
