Hearing for accused "9/11 MASTERMIND" marked by delays...

The Kangaroo court at the American Gulag is finally starting on snail pace. Had the suspects been put on trial in a civilian court; all the charges against them would have been thrown out as inadmissible in court that is why even the US president was overruled by the US military. Remember that all these guys were not caught in the battlefield. Mohammad Sheikh for instance was arrested inside his house in Pakistan while the others were arrested in different places all over the planet. It took 11 years after 9/11 to torture them into admission of whatever the US government imagined they did in fact if they asked Mohammad Sheikh if he was the guy crawling at the knoll that fired the fatal shot the killed JFK; he would have said yes. Why do you think they killed the unarmed Osama Bin Laden inside his bedroom? DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES...





Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (CNN) -- Silence from accused 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four others resulted in delays during their arraignment Saturday in Guantanamo Bay.

A hearing before a military judge that could have lasted minutes instead stretched into hours.
It is Mohammed and four others' first appearance in a military courtroom since being charged a month ago.
Along with Mohammed, the others are Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin 'Attash, Ramzi Binalshibh, Ali Abdul Aziz Ali, and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi.

The five are charged with terrorism, hijacking aircraft, conspiracy, murder in violation of the law of war, attacking civilians, attacking civilian objects, intentionally causing serious bodily injury and destruction of property in violation of the law of war.

The silence from the defendants -- some ignored the judge and others appeared to be reading -- slowed the proceedings to a crawl.

SNIP
The military initially charged Mohammed in 2008, but President Barack Obama stopped the case as part of his effort to close the U.S. detention center at Guantanamo Bay.

Unable to close the center, Obama attempted to move the case to federal court in New York in 2009, only to run into a political firestorm. The plan was dropped after complaints about cost and security.

Last April, Attorney General Eric Holder announced the five would face a military trial at Guantanamo Bay.
The decision was met with some criticism, including from the American Civil Liberties Union.
