Khalid Sheikh Mohammed

Americans Rally in Thousands to Protest Eric Holder’s Terror Trial Decision

NEW YORK, DECEMBER 5, 2009 — Several thousand protesters gathered at Foley Square in New York City to rally against Attorney General Eric Holder’s decision to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammad and 4 other 9/11 co-conspirators as civilians in federal court.

Despite bitter cold, strong winds and heavy rain the crowd stayed through the 2-hour rally. The event was organized by the 9/11 Coalition to Never Forget and featured speakers representing 9/11 family members, first responders and our troops.

The bottom line for the editors at the New York Daily News is this:

“[Khalid Sheikh] Mohammed belongs in front of one of the fully constitutional military tribunals created by Congress expressly for the purpose of trying his ilk, rather than being given a propaganda platform that downgrades the notion from an act of war into a crime. If you’re appalled by the Ghailani preview, we can guarantee you’ll hate the Mohammed feature-length movie even more. So stop it from coming to a theater near you. Join the rally.
