US prosecutors may negotiate plea deal with 9/11 architect Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, other conspirators
Legal proceedings against the 9/11 conspirators have been bogged down for years
U.S. military prosecutors are reportedly negotiating potential plea deals with 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other conspirators imprisoned in Guantanamo Bay.
The plea deals may allow the five dependents to escape a potential death penalty, according to CBS. Mohammed is widely credited with being the architect of the 9/11 terror attacks. The other four defendants are Ramzi Binalshibh, Mustafa Ahmed al-Hawsawi, Walid bin Attash and Ammar al-Baluchi.
Attorneys for the defendants reportedly say they would be willing to enter a guilty plea in exchange for taking the death penalty off the table, as well as for getting treatment for alleged torture they experienced while in CIA custody.
The CIA held each of the five men for interrogation prior to their arrival in Guantanamo in 2006. Critics argue the CIA's methods amounted to illegal torture.

I don't Give Two Schidts what liberal crybabies think.
What kind of hell did the innocent Americans suffer who were trapped in those burning buildings?
Some slowly cooking to death, some through smoke inhalation. Others knowing what was coming, choosing to jump to their own gruesome death.
How about the children on the flights that were flown into the towers?
If the CIA wants to interrogate them until their hearts explode, and use that info to save American Military/Civilian lives, or prevent upcoming terror attacks, by getting one of the terrorists to give up vital information, fine by me.
I have personally seen the after effects of terrorist work.
When people have personal experience, and not sanitized armchair theoretical exposure, where they can turn the page, or change the screen when it becomes "too offensive", then they will change their minds and get off their moral high horse about getting just as ugly with these animals.

But families of 9/11 victims said there can be no justice until the perpetrators of the attacks are executed for their crimes.
"I will not have closure as long as there is any possibility for some future president to commute their sentences or trade them away for something political that they want from some other country. That's a very real possibility because it's now been done over and over and over again," said Debra Burlingame, whose brother Charles "Chic" Burlingame was a pilot killed when al Qaeda terrorists hijacked his plane, American Airlines Flight 77, and crashed it into the Pentagon.
Burlingame told Herridge she's afraid "we've reached a point in our country where we just don't seem to have … the courage of our convictions."
Who is this "we" you refer too? I have convictions. They are guilty and I offered to teach them to fly for the rest of their lives. Not hard to understand.
I am..........disturbed.
