Rather than face a military tribunal, 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other Guantanamo Bay detainees are headed to New York for a civilian trial.
Also to be put on trial, at least symbolically, will be the Bush administration. Defense attorneys will surely tell jurors--again and again--that KSM was waterboarded.
Meanwhile, Attorney General Eric Holder will announce that USS Cole bombing plotter Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri will face a military tribunal, not a jury trial.
If any of this makes sense to you, please explain all of this to me in the comments section.
