9/11 mass murderers demand no hearings during Ramadan

And of course, the Islamic religion that led them to become mass murderers in the first place must be respected. "9/11 accused don’t want hearings during Ramadan," by Carol Rosenberg for the Miami Herald, July 10 (thanks to David):

Lawyers for accused Sept. 11 attacks mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammed and his four co-defendants are seeking to postpone their Aug. 8-13 hearing at Guantánamo, noting it falls toward the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

The trial judge, Army Col. James Pohl, set the date for the hearing in May and specifically ruled out an extension on grounds that it coincided with Islam’s fasting month. He noted in his order then that no defense lawyer at that point had raised objection to a hearing that coincided with Ramadan.

But the attorneys do just that in a June 21 filing currently under seal on the Pentagon’s war court website entitled “Joint Defense Motion for the Military Commission to Respect the Religious Observances of Enemy Prisoners under Common Article 3.”

Pohl is hearing motions in another Guantánamo case next week. But that hearing ends by July 19, before Ramadan starts. The 9/11 case pre-trial motions would be heard toward the end of Ramadan.

“The last 10 days of Ramadan commemorate the night God —Allah— revealed the Holy Quran to the Prophet Mohammed,” said James Connell, the Pentagon-paid defense counsel for Mohammed’s nephew, Ammar al Baluchi. “These 10 days are the most holy period of the Muslim calendar and are typically observed by fasting, prayer, and seclusion.”...

The dhimmi defense lawyer:

“The last 10 days of Ramadan commemorate the night God —Allah— revealed the Holy Quran to the Prophet Mohammed,” said James Connell, the Pentagon-paid defense counsel for Mohammed’s nephew, Ammar al Baluchi. “These 10 days are the most holy period of the Muslim calendar and are typically observed by fasting, prayer, and seclusion.”...

Hey, James, we are NOT f*cking mooslims! And we don't give flying f*ck if his trial falls on "Ramala-ding-dong".

Give me five seconds with this bastard and he'll be spending his entire life in fasting (no food whatsoever), prayer (whatever - he can pray to his idol all he wants), and permanent seclusion in a jail cell welded shut.

I am so sick of this bullshit!!

Good Gawd! When you thought the PC/MC BS of the military could sink no lower, SURPRISE! It just did!

There is nothing "holy" about Ramadan, it's a source of strife amongst families and tribes. They kill duriing Ramadan. I know because I lived there and saw the bodycarts.

On with the sentencing during Ramadan,and incarcerate them for life during Eid. They want to die and become martyrs, so do the worst thing possible - don't let them, Force them to stay alive until they rot.

I'm certain the rivers of honey don't need rotting flesh in them. The virgins won't like the smell either.

Ramadan fasting means missing lunch and pigging out at night and in the morning...Let them fast, but pigging out is not a religious obligation...The regular restaurant quality meals should be served, but no extra cake or ice cream...

swami,

I'm sure by "pigging out" you meant ham sandwiches all around for the accused.

Yes, proceed with the trial during Ramadan, culminating with a jailhouse dinner of pork and beans for Eid.

And no skull caps or beards in court. These filthy animals must be made to adhere to our customs and culture; they are in our courts because they violated OUR laws.

James Connell needs his head examined.

Ramadan is arguably the most unholy religious event ever invented by man. A close competitor would be the hajj. Following in third place would be the head banging five times a day (and with the undignified position of the posterior in the air nonetheless).

Really, it's hard to respect most anything about Islam. OK, some interesting non-representational art here and there. The occasional intellectual advance in the Islamic world such as the work on optics. Etc. But, c'mon. Hey, Nazi Germany built the Autobahn, the Volkswagen and great tanks, but so what?

Weigh the "achievements" of Islam against its negatives and, unless you're a total doofus, which is pretty much equivalent to what the modern Western elites in politics, the media and academia are today (e.g., Obama, the BBC or the rubes at places like Harvard and Oxford), you've got to conclude that Islam is a giant negative for all mankind.

Really.

9/11 mass murderers demand no hearings during Ramadan

These scum shouldn't be in a position to "demand" *anything*.

Exactly. 9/11 *itself* was a form of observing their horrifying "religion".

What the hell is this "God—Allah" crap? And the "Prophet Mohammed", and the "Holy Quran"?

Has James Connell converted to Islam? Does he believe this is a Shari'ah court? What crap.

A lot of well-meaning people excuse this sort of nasty game-playing on the grounds that Jihadists' lawyers are just trying to represent their clients to the best of their ability.

But this sort of toadying to Islam has *nothing* to do with ensuring they get a fair trial.

The only issue should be their guilt or innocence, and whether there are any extenuating circumstances—and no, by this I do not mean Islam itself—*not* attempting to impose Islamic law in the United States.

The judge should deny this stupidity, and tell the defense lawyers that any further shenanigans won't be tolerated.

Just backing up what you said.

From the jihadwatch archives.

http://www.jihadwatch.org/2003/11/escalation-of-incitement-to-violence-during-the-month-of-ramadan.html

Citing MEMRI, that treasure-trove of information:

"The month of Ramadan, the month of fasting, has a special status as the month of religious spirituality and devotion.

"**However, in Muslim tradition it is also perceived as a month of Jihad** {my emphasis - dda}, a month in which Allah grants military victories to His believers.

" It was during Ramadan that Muslims triumphed in many battles throughout the history of Jihad for the sake of Allah - among them the battle of Badr in 624, the conquest of Mecca in 630 and of Andalusia in 711, the battle of Al-Zallaqa (in Andalusia) in 1086, the battle of Ein Jalut in 1260...". [The Muslims also claim the 1973 Yom Kippur Muslim assault on Israel, which took place during Ramadan, as a 'victory'.. but never mind...we know their tendency to rewrite history}.

he expects respect for his religion while he desrespects all others. crucify him and bury him with crosses.


But CAIR keeps telling us that islam and muslims had NOTHING to do with 9/11 .

But now these killers boast about being muslism and follow islam to a tee.

Which one is it Hooper, does the trial go ahead, or do these killer really practise the brutal and hate-filled tenets of the quran and violence handed down from muhammad.

Pick one Hooper.

August is no good because of Ramadan? NO PROBLEMO!!! Set it for NOW!!! The judge should just move it up.

"The last 10 days of Ramadan commemorate the night God —Allah— revealed the Holy Quran to the Prophet Mohammed."

Why does it take ten days to commemorate what Allah revealed in just one night?

And Allah didn't reveal anything to Moe. An angel who claimed he spoke for Allah, did the revealing.

And what's this "one night" business, anyway? Wasn't the Koran revealed over a great many sessions with the angel? Like whenever Moe needed justification for taking another wife?

O.k. that's the last ten days. What do the first 20 days commemorate? All the prisoners Moe murdered? Or maybe all the women he raped? Or all the caravans he robbed?

Could we possibly enhance the defendants' holiness by extending the fast so it also runs from sundown to sunrise?

Yes, you ACLU types, this is not serious, aside from the emotions.

That's what's called 'adding insult to injury'. Bloody cheek I call it.

Arw, why not let Sept. 11 attacks mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammed and his four co-defendants celebrate the Ramadan? It might actually make people get a clearer insight into his ideology, motives and convictions.
Unless ...unless he is a misunderstander, and not a true Muslim.

It doesn't commemorate anything. It was just another coopting of Judaism or Arab practices as early Muslim fascists/Mohammed observed that Muslims should be able to outfast the Jooz or the local pagan crowd or anyone else, so it was arbitrarily derived with the usual non-sensical methodology and scientific alchemy invented by those clever Muslim science-people...just take over someone else's stuff and call it yours.

It's just made up. Ramadan means absolutely nothing. Like the hijab, it serves to identify those already under submission and those not yet subjugated. Since it took time to travel village to village to discover this, Ramadan lasts a month or so, allowing for the ass-wiggling checkers to see what's what. Hard to hide that you're not really a Muslim if Ramadan's only a day. "How was your fast, Ahmed?" "Oh, great. I was sooooo hungry yesterday. Allahu akbar."

Having said that, do you think a prosecutor wouldn't mind delaying my hearings? It's on my birthday, and that has a lot of special meaning to me.

Judge, please don't give in.
Don't pander to these people.
American laws do not allow for a stop/change in the trial for religious reasons, so, no stops/no changes.

Forget it! Did they respect anybody else's rights or beliefs? No! They forfeit any rights they may have had - provided, of course, that they have been found guilty of the crimes

“Joint Defense Motion for the Military Commission to Respect the Religious Observances of Enemy Prisoners under Common Article 3.”

F*** that. NO respect! Beside, it's not a religion, unless you accept worshipping evil and sadism as religious. Demand? The only demand that should be forwarded is that of the immediate execution of the 9/11 criminals.

let the hearings proceed as scheduled; keep them on military time

(i've never seen a smiling Muhammadan during Ramadan)

Just when I think the world can't get any crazier, it always does. In that regard, islam never disappoints.

Why these bast***ds have not been executed yet. Are we waiting for a permission from Mo/allah??

"And of course, the Islamic religion that led them to become mass murderers in the first place must be respected."

First of all the judge nor the law in question is not Islamic so it isn't concerned nor shoould it be concerned about Ramadan. The Islamic (so called) religion is no concern of U.S. courts. Just as the other religions are of no concern to Islam.

Secondly, Islam must show that it is supreme, and therefor able to conduct (steer) all others including U.S. courts of law into submission to and of Islam. Make no mistake Islam has a purpose (instructions) for everything it does and says.

The ideology of Islam is not even close to other laws or religions. Fact is we may never know exactly how strange (different) Islam is to all other cultures. And that is 99% of the problem. Our cultures and ideologys are ignorant to Islam and Islam uses that against us all. Islam can make things up as this jihad continues and the very naive and ignorant kaffir nations haven't a clue, except to submit.

Is it any wonder then that Islam is having its way with the free world? Islam is able to manuver, dictate to, and control kaffir cultures and has been for 1400 years. And the kaffir cultures can only submit because they have no clue what is true and what is made-up to protect Islam.

The United States is powerless against Islam because it does not have the knowledge to argue or prove differently.

Poof that kafirs shouldn't be burning the Qur'an, but be reading it instead. Until kaffir nations know differently, they will never be able to be effective against jihad.
