Debra Burlingame on civilian 9/11 trial forum: ‘People stood up and said this is wrong’

On the Tammy Bruce Show today, Debra Burlingame discussed what changed the 9/11 trial forum decision made by President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder from a civilian trial to a military commission at Guantanamo. “Peoples’ voices; it really does make a difference.”

Listen to the rest at TammyBruce.com.

Note: While Eric Holder last week blamed “Congress,” it was a Democrat controlled Congress and bi-partisan opposition that repeatedly foiled the plan to transfer and hold Gitmo detainees in the U.S.

Debra Burlingame on KSM trial decision: ‘What will be the consequences’ to Eric Holder? (Steve Malzberg interview audio)

Debra Burlingame discussed the nearing decision on where and how to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his fellow self-confessed 9/11 attack conspirators with WOR talk radio host Steve Malzberg. Why did it take a year for President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder to decide? Why did they delay the announcement until after the midterm elections?

As Steve noted, Governor-elect Andrew Cuomo also waited until after the midterms before telling voters of his opposition to the trials being held in New York.
