Obama May Toss ‘Full Trials’ For Alleged 9/11 Plotters
Obama may toss ‘full trials’ for alleged 9/11 plotters
By Agence France-Presse | Raw Story
One advantage of permitting guilty pleas by defendants in the Sept. 11 case would be that the government would not have to expose harsh interrogation techniques during full trials that would otherwise have to be carried out, the Times said. It said the proposal to permit guilty pleas — which are not allowed in the legal framework the U.S. military uses in trials for its own personnel — would in effect permit the Sept. 11 defendants to achieve a self-proclaimed desire for martyrdom.
A plan under consideration by the Obama administration would permit Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, detainees facing the death penalty to plead guilty without a full trial, it has been reported.
This option would principally be aimed at a group of detainees accused of planning the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks, five people who have already indicated they prefer this resolution of the case, The New York Times said in a story posted late Friday on its Web site.
The terrorism-era U.S. military commission format has come under withering criticism from legal and human rights quarters, and American military prosecutions employing this structure and legal rules have for the most part been put on hold since January while the new administration considered other options.

or no trial at all can keep suppressed the fact that the False-confessions were the result of TORTURE(Torture Works).
If the TRUTH were to come out, it would be understood by all that these "9/11 Plotters" were Patsies -set up to take the fall.
NOTHING CHANGED WITH OBAMA except for the time being this country has a lot more "believers".
Wake up America. Everything you know is a charade.
However we will not get it because as Joestokes says "Everything you know is a charade" Chris Dorsey, RVA4Peace
Condoleezza Rice testified to the 9/11 Commission on Wednesday May 19, 2004, that the warnings she had of the attack failed to specify the exact time or from which airports the attack would emanate. Her knowledge of the attacks was known by the President too. What team of experts would be allowed by the WTC security force to rig the explosive devices that collapsed all three buildings?
Here are the verbatim, transcribed words by National Security Advisor Rice,
“For the essential crisis management task, we depended on the Counterterrorism Security Group chaired by Dick Clarke to be the interagency nerve center. The CSG consisted of senior counterterrorism experts from CIA, the FBI, the Department of Justice, the Defense Department (including the Joint Chiefs of Staff), the State Department, and the Secret Service.
The CSG had met regularly for many years, and its members had worked through numerous periods of heightened threat activity. As threat information increased, the CSG met more frequently, sometimes daily, to review and analyze the threat reporting and to coordinate actions in response. CSG members also had ready access to their Cabinet Secretaries and could raise any concerns they had at the highest levels.
The threat reporting that we received in the spring and summer of 2001 was not specific as to time, nor place, nor manner of attack. Almost all of the reports focused on al Qaeda activities outside the United States, especially in the Middle East and North Africa.
In fact, the information that was specific enough to be actionable referred to terrorist operations overseas. More often, it was frustratingly vague. Let me read you some of the actual chatter that we picked up that spring and summer: "Unbelievable news coming in weeks," "Big event ... there will be a very, very, very, very big uproar," "There will be attacks in the near future."
Troubling, yes. But they don't tell us when; they don't tell us where; they don't tell us who; and they don't tell us how.”
To order the preparations for the controlled demolition of the WTC you don’t need to know when, where, who, and how the attack will come. We know for a fact that controlled demolition was used to embellish the attack and we know directly from Rice’s testimony under oath that her team used that knowledge.
They are on record during the first two NSC meetings in January and February 2001 declaring their desire to attack Iraq. They are on record hundreds of times using the 9/11 attack as a reason that Bush used to attack Iraq.
Failing or refusing to connect the known controlled demolition to the only suspect with the power to rig the necessary explosives in the WTC is ignorant.
