Eric Holder Blames Congress for Blocking Trial for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed

Even when they do the right thing, the Obama administration refuses to take responsibility: The Obama administration Monday abandoned its effort to put Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other alleged plotters of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on trial in civilian courts, saying the accused terrorists will instead face military trials at Guantanamo Bay, in the […]
