US resident at Guantanamo cuts deal, pleads guilty to murder, terror plot

A former Baltimore resident who has been detained in Guantanamo Bay pleaded guilty Wednesday to charges against him, including murder, attempted murder, conspiracy, spying and providing material support to al Qaeda.

Majid Khan admitted that he was part of the successful plot to bomb the Marriott Hotel in Jakarta, Indonesia, in 2003, which killed 11 and injured 76. Two victims from the bombing were in the military court in Guantanamo to witness the proceeding.

As part of a plea agreement, Khan is expected to testify against other detainees including the self-described architect of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.

Indonesia will probably want to extradite him after he gets out. :popcorn:

I don't know why we are keeping any of them alive.  If we haven't been able to milk them for intel by now, we never will be.

Shoot all of them.

Naah . . . beheading or hanging, both of which are insults in Islam.

Which is why BSS's suggestion is so fitting.  I call dibs on the pay-per-view rights.   :popcorn:
