Nine years after his arrest in Pakistan, self-proclaimed 9/11 mastermind Khaled Sheikh Mohammed could soon be back in court for the much-awaited "trial of the century."
After years of delays, a significant step took place last week when a former aide to Mohammed, Majid Khan, accepted a plea deal with US authorities that will require him to testify against other terror suspects at a tribunal at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
President Barack Obama "can claim credit for killing (Osama) bin Laden and (Al-Qaeda cleric Anwar) Al-Awlaqi, so nailing KSM would complete the hat trick and help quiet the conservative fearmongers who say he's weak on terrorism," former chief US military prosecutor Colonel Morris Davis told AFP.

Too bad that the ones who were formally icons of the U.S. government will not face that type of justice. We can make up names all day and say this person did it. Why is KSM facing military court, and not supreme? What can they definitely be hiding?

KSM was the planner/master-mind and OBL was the head of the organization that carried it out...

What I don't understand is if this guy is the mastermind, then what did Osama do?
Oh yeah he bombed the WTC in 1993 and Clinton had a chance to capture/kill him but didn't.
In other words, why hasn't this guy been killed yet?
According to all the news outlets, OBL created 9/11.
That's why we killed him and that helicopter got shot down.
I love the television and everything it tells me is the truth.
Hold on a minute while I go bow down to it again and thank it for its truth.
It is the ultimate form of religion and I praise its name.
Seriously, this guy gets a trial but no one else does?
This story and all it's sensationalism is coming at the perfect time and will probably last until the elections.
Mark my words.
