I'd like to know who the REAL masterminds were.
Cephus
The current pentagon no difference with Casinos deal or no deal. What is it Joe ?
wallace
The American legal system runs on daily plead deals. It would collapse otherwise.
bass4funk
I’ll be so happy once this guy is executed
John
Well that’s interesting.
Either the prosecution got a little too over its skis or the optics weren’t good.
Either they’re getting the needle or they’re never leaving prison and I’m ok either way.
John
I will say, there’s less incentive to kidnap innocent people to use in exchange for terrorists that have already been executed.
TaiwanIsNotChina
Not a great move. They weren't going anywhere and now the legal challenges will continue and possibly result in these terrorists getting free.

Another one of those good deals scuttled by the Repubs - due to their ignorance...
These plea deals would have sent these bums to jail for the rest of their lives...while executing them will just turn them into martyrs...
Send them to spend the rest of their lives at the Supermax - that's a punishment worse than death...
It would also let us close the Guantanamo prison that has such a checkered history....
But no, just like with the border bill and the recent prisoner transfer with Russia, the Pubs are guaranteed to do something counter to our national interest...

For once I am glad this admin did something right for a change. Kudos
No, the libs didn't approve of this guy taking a dirt nap.
That's ok, better dead than paying for their lunches.
No, execute them and give the planet a bit more breathing room.
That won't happen
That amounted to not doing anything to curtail immigration
Watch for more kidnappings, this is what capitulation does.
Blacklabel
Awww so Lloyd Austin is now supposedly doing the bidding of republicans, whose fault it really is?
umm. Nah.
lincolnman
Good - glad see you clearly disagreeing with Trump...
Pubs...
Martyr - that's what they want...study the Middle East...you're just giving "aid to the enemy"...
More MAGA-predicting....I guess they just don't mind being humiliated...
Conservative Repub hero Sen Jim Lankford disagrees...
Uh, you just gave this admin "kudos" in your first sentence above - now in the same post you're saying its "capitulation"....
That's self-contradicting - and just plain "weird"...
bass4funk
I didn't
Khalid
Good, less on the taxpayer
Looking at the polls, no reason to feel humiliated
10 million illegals say differently.
Yes, incentive for more kidnappings
I didn't relax.
lincolnman
What? Sure you did...
Your uncle?
OK, you agree with Khalid...
That's what you said when you predicted wrongly and were humiliated in 2018, 2020, and 2022....ROFL...
OK, so you side with the illegals over your own Repub Senator...
Which you gave "kudos" too...Weird...
Two times - quite-weird....
bass4funk
Wrong again.
Disney?
I agree with the people who died in the US.
But I was right in 2012,2014, and 2016
Just looking at Myorkas abysmal record
For reversing and sending him back to his cell, an electric chair or a needle would be better actually
And the left still doesn't learn, odd...
GuruMick
Were'nt the main perps from Saudi Arabia ?
I'll stand to be corrected if I am wrong .
If I'm correct, what sanctions were put on Saudi Arabia ?
And remind me again why a million Iraqis' died and probably as many Afghanis'.
Both failed states now.
TaiwanIsNotChina
Doesn't mean the government of Saudi Arabia was behind it.
Your numbers are complete bunk perhaps or include unrelated wars? In any event some Afghanis may have died because their government was hosting terrorists and large parts of the world were trying to bring them civilization.
Iraq is not a failed state by any stretch of the imagination. Iran, however, may be headed that way.
Yrral
He might just walk free,if a federal Judge decides,he was not afforded a speedy trial,to try this guy ,the US has violated every US constitution norm,dealing with 9/11 going back to Bush,we do enforce laws based on revenge,but rule of law
zibala
Yes. Let them linger in Guantanamo Bay until then.
No mercy.
Yrral
Zibala,you wonder why American freedom have been curtail by the Patriots Acts,this law do not effect international terrorists,if curtail the freedom of you as an American
GuruMick
Taiwan...fact check
"Centre for Stategic and International Studies "....document titled "Iraq as a FAILED STATE '
Wiki document identified as a long range survey of Iraqi people/families who had lost relatives during the Iraqi {USA Invasion, actually } war....more than 1000,000 deaths.
Many deaths occur in war because the aggressors destroy infrastructure like water, hospitals, food supplies etc.
Did that occur to you ?
GuruMick
AS well, GDP of Iran more than $400 billion.
So Not anywhere near a failed state.
Iran has a larger military than Israel as well.
TaiwanIsNotChina
Ok let's check these "facts".
A pretty weak paper but he does say that the political problems are a result of 70 years of problems in Iraq. I'm talking about how they pump more oil than they ever did under Saddam. The politics will be sorted out when Iran is out of the country.
Yeah, no, wikipedia gives you dozens of studies, all with orders of maginitude lower figures.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Iraq_War
The ORB study is the only flawed outlier but keep clinging to it.
Yeah but not the US in this case.
Time for Iran to get out so Iraq can be peaceful again.
GuruMick
So Taiwan, you are an anonymous poster on JT, yet self hold more credibility than a writer for "Centre for Strategic and International Studies "?
Boy, thats some self importance you have.
Time for the USA to get out of a global area is does not belong in.
And which companies got all the oil post Saddam ?
Yankee ones.
TaiwanIsNotChina
If they did, it was with lawful agreements with the Iraqi government. China and Russia are also there for the boom.

This guy doesn't deserve the US justice system.
He deserves military justice which should have been carried out 6 months after capture. His actions killed over 3300 people. I don't need to know any more. He's a mass killer of innocents. A terrorist. No plea. No mercy.
Ask for 10 volunteers for the firing squad and there will be 100K people lining up. Tell them to avoid the head and heart. Put it on prime-time TV. Entertain the masses.
