Dear Concerned American,
A short while ago, you joined the effort to free three Navy SEALs unjustly scheduled for courts-martial. I want to thank you and ask for your help one more time.
Attorney General Eric Holder has once again put the welfare of Americans in jeopardy by granting 9-11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM) and his minions the right to a civil trial in New York City. AG Holder is giving terrorists the same rights granted to you and me as citizens of the United States.
Let me be blunt: Foreign terrorists do NOT have protections reserved for Americans under the Constitution. Some would even have you think that these 9-11 murderers are protected by the Geneva Conventions, but a reading of the Conventions will show that to receive protection, enemy combatants MUST by easily identified as such. These terrorists hid in plain sight.
Terrorists are enemy combatants that have been tried in military tribunals for more than 200 years. But a weak stance by AG Holder shies away from strong measures. His foibles include:
- Giving KSM and his cohorts a stage on which to ridicule our great nation
- Disregarding common-sense security for an international terrorist, creating a grave security risk
- Throwing away millions of dollars we simply cannot afford
- Using New York City as a political arena, when it is still recovering from the trauma of that horrible day
- Exposing the city’s fine citizens to this travesty, exploiting them for their selfish agenda
We are committed to having AG Holder reverse his decision and move this trial back to a military tribunal where it belongs.
Help us reach our goal of delivering one million signatures to the desk of Attorney General Holder. We need you and the help of your friends to make this happen.
Sign our petition now.
Yours for a stronger and safer America,

P.S. This battle can be won, but we need your support. Our safety from terror may well hang in the balance. Stop this disgrace now by signing our petition. And help keep us safe from future terrorists who will fear nothing more than a chance at world-wide publicity.
