Former New York Gov. George Pataki is outraged at the Obama administration decision to put 9-11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other conspirators on trial in civilian court. Why? Why does Pataki say President Obama – like President Clinton – treats terrorists like the guy who robs the local liquor store? Why does he say terrorism must be handled differently than most other crimes? What does he make of the Democratic argument that suspects should be tried in court near the site of the crime? Why does he say the civilian trials on the 1993 World Trade Center bombing actually worked to Osama Bin Laden’s advantage?
Listen here to Greg’s full interview with Gov. Pataki.
