The Hon. Eric Holder Dear Mr. Holder: We, the editors of HUMAN EVENTS, RedState.com, and the many Americans who have attached our names to this petition hereby request that you try al-Qaeda's confessed 9/11 terrorist mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his four al-Qaeda cohorts in a military tribunal, reversing your precedent-changing decision to try them in a civilian court in New York City. There is no reason, much less a requirement, under U.S. Constitutional or statutory law to grant KSM and the others the right to a trial in civilian courts, nor to offer them any of the corresponding Constitutional rights afforded U.S. citizens.
Attorney General of the United States
Washington, DC

The US government has ONE SET of rules that it must follow, not several. Those rules do not include the power of "granting" rights. Those rules DO immunize, protect and otherwise observe that PEOPLE have, rights. Those rules do not immunize, protect or otherwise observe that those rules are suspended when the PEOPLE are NOT US citizens. It never ceases to amaze me that it is usually the self proclaimed "small government" conservatives who advocate the government use a RAW exercise of power over people they just don't like.
