Al Qaeda Chief Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Confesses to Planning Sept. 11

Anyone else get the feeling that the government might try to use this confession to let Bin Laden and Zawahiri off the hook?

Terror mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed calmly explained to a U.S. military tribunal that his murderous plots were simple acts of war, comparing Al Qaeda leader Usama Bin Laden to American Revolutionary War hero George Washington.

Except George Washington's actions birthed a free nation. Osama's actions caused missiles, lots and lots of missiles.

Mohammed's incredible confession to a Guantanamo tribunal was detailed in a transcript released Wednesday by the Pentagon in which he calmly listed 28 terrorist attacks — topped by Sept. 11 — since the early 1990s that he either directly planned and three more that he had hand in.

The JFK assassination, the Roswell UFO incident, building the Pyramids, the fall of the Roman Empire...

The gruesome attacks range from the suicide hijackings of Sept. 11, 2001 — which killed nearly 3,000 — to a 2002 shooting on an island off Kuwait that killed a U.S. Marine.

It's also being reported that he himself beheaded Daniel Pearl. Definitely a bad guy we have in our custody. I'm interested to hear the human rights people defend this piece of shit.

"We consider we and George Washington doing same thing," Mohammed lectured to the tribunal, and in a rambling explanation spoke coldly about how "the language of war is killing."

Good point. Hang him.
