Justice System

I guess William Glaberson of the New York Times has this story exclusive, that the Bush administration is about to fire up the Kangaroo court it set in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba to finally try someone for the 9/11 attack.

This court is, of course, about the only place you could ever try Khalid Shaikh Mohammed after all the things we did to him. Because of George W. Bush’s immorality, America discarded its ideals; established “black sites” dungeons where we tortured detainees; we farmed out people for other nations to torture for us; we killed innocent people that we picked up; we violated international laws with impunity; and set up an outpost that we intended to be outside the law. And, after years of packing the courts, Bush may well now have a Supreme Court to rubber-stamp this charade in Guantanamo.

Because of Bush, the perpetrators of 9/11, killers of thousands of Americans, men like Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, could never be brought to justice in a real court of law.
