KSM Plea Deal Back On
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
A U.S. military court upheld a judge’s ruling that found SecDef Austin acted improperly last year when he invalidated plea agreements for three men accused of planning the terrorist attacks of 9/11. The plea deals with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin ‘Attash and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi allow them to plead guilty to lesser charges preventing them from receiving a death sentence.
Pentagon chief loses bid to reject 9/11 plea deals
WASHINGTON — A military appeals court has ruled against Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s effort to throw out the plea deals reached for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and two other defendants in the 9/11 attacks, a U.S. official said.
The decision puts back on track the agreements that would have the three men plead guilty to one of the deadliest attacks on the United States in exchange for being spared the possibility of the death penalty. The attacks by al-Qaida killed nearly 3,000 people on Sept. 11, 2001, and helped spur U.S. invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq in what the George W. Bush administration called its war on terror.
The military appeals court released its ruling Monday night, according to the U.S. official, who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
Military prosecutors and defense attorneys for Mohammed, the accused mastermind of the attacks, and two co-defendants reached the plea agreements after two years of government-approved negotiations. The deals were announced late last summer.
Supporters of the plea agreements see them as a way of resolving the legally troubled case against the men at the U.S. military commission at Guantanamo Bay naval base in Cuba. Pretrial hearings for Mohammed, Walid bin Attash and Mustafa al-Hawsawi have been underway for more than a decade.

Right on the heels of an ISIS flagged terror attack in New Orleans. 19 and a wake-up.
23 years this has been going on.
They should have been hanged in the first months and then their heads on pike in front of where the Twin Tower were.
Heads on a pike would be great and I could see my co-worker plus other friends whom were FDNY and Long Beach FD Volly Fire Fighters on Long Island NY with a big grin smiling down from heaven. RIP Brothers, I miss you.
Right on Jeff!
How they’d roll and what they understand.
I think the time has come for an Amendment to the US Constitution that states that the death penalty is not a cruel or unusual punishment and that it is prescribed and mandatory in Capital Offences.
After researching death penalties of the past, there is no doubt in my mind that methods used in the USA are the most humane.
After seeing the disastrous consequences of some of the Constitutional amendments (can you say 16th, 17th, and 18th Amendments? I knew you could), I’m thinking a FedGov law would be a better choice (if there isn’t one already). More easily passed, amented, modified, and deleted (if the US ever gets to that point).
Having it be a Constitutional Amendment almost guarantees it’ll not be taken down later (18th is the only Amendment ever taken down). A tall order to do? Yes, but I feel it’s worth it.
My thoughts on the 16th and 17th Amendments (which I agree with you as being terrible ideas): 17th will be next to impossible to repeal. I have no ideas on that one. 16th falls in the same category, but here’s my idea: an Amendment that puts a cap on how much the government is allowed to tax us as a workaround?
With 10 days for appeals. I don’t want to see any prolonged suffering. But it must occur on the 10th day at midnight and guillotined.
Instead of a guillotine, why not feed them feet-first into a grinder and their remains fed to pigs?
are you planning to eat the pigs?
Dip them in warm lard, then tie them to a dry brush pile and set it on fire, they need to get used to burning.
Maybe their ride to prison should be in a tesla truck… since I’m sure the feebs will say the one in Vegas today was just a malfunction. Couldn’t the same be claimed with them on board?
Not lard. Pig fat. Make an industrial sized batch of chicharones and dunk them in the leftover fat. It’s ok if it’s still boiling.
Used bacon grease will also do well.
If I remember correctly, lard is pig fat.
You do remember correctly, for some reason I was thinking beef. My apologies to everyone. But now I’m craving chicharones.
There may also have been some made from bear fat. The word tallow is coming to mind with respect to beef.
He needs to ride the lighting like the German saboteurs in WW2.
A waste of electricity IMO, either hang them or give them a hit to the base of the neck with a ball peen hammer, then leave their corpses out in the woods for wild hogs and vultures to feed on.
If they aren’t already at Gitmo, send all three of them there…..by swimming.
Have a boat cruising alongside them, just to make sure no hostile nation picks them up to rescue them. Nothing more.
Can you say “chum”? I knew that you could.
I gots a plea deal for them…let these mofos plea for their lives just before they are thrown into a pen full of hungry feral hogs.
Or do like they did to their victims. Find a high rise slated for demo. Put em on the top floor, set the floors below them on fire, and give em the option..
Right after they’ve been smeared with pig fat.
I like it
Dogs too. Don’t forget the dogs. Also, tell them the dogs and hogs are owned by Jews and other infidels.
In before, Mark L. appears, coming in saying that we should’ve had long warm showers, Foot massages, conjugal visits and been Feeding this fine upstanding gentleman, peeled grapes and the fine French cheeses for the last 24 years.
Well, when Obama traded five (5) such folk for Beau Bergdahl, it was orginally supposed to be six (6) but one dude had a heart attack gettin’ his cardio in on the elliptical at Gitmo. Awful, just inhumanely awful. /sarc

I like something quick and cheap, reusable, and no chance of a failure. Guillotine. Its our tax dollars at work, so we need to do this cheaply. Of course drowning terrorist is fairly in expensive too.
An unfortunate boating accident. Leaky John boats taking up side yard and back yard spaces seemingly everywhere.
Guy in the photo needs a shave. A really close one.
With a chainsaw
Ah, I remember the immortal words of our E7 at the time when KSM got captured: “What, Ron Jeremy’s a terrorist?!”
