The one-count guilty verdict against terror detainee Ahmed Ghailani disappointed many Americans who thought the government had a rock-solid case, but civilian courts are still more successful at getting convictions than military commissions, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Sunday.
And that means more sentences to satisfy Americans looking for justice against plotters of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks and other assaults on U.S. interests, Clinton said.

"But when you look at the success record in civilian courts of convicting, sentencing, detaining in maximum security prisons by the civilian courts, it surpasses what yet has been accomplished in the military commissions," she said.
Us Americans looking for justice think they should all be at room temp by now :censored:

Apparently even if acquitted completely in a civilian trial, he would not have been released, which makes the entire civilian trial just a pointless and stupid charade that will foreseeably result in our allegedly-best-ever justice system mocked around the world for becoming a mere tool of political theater.
Frankly after working in the U.S. justice system my whole life, I'm not so sure on that 'Best-ever' stuff; ours is roughly equal on balance to the justice systems of other Western democracies, leveling out all the pluses and minuses, and that's about as far as I'd really be willing to go with that.

This will just feed those countries ammunition that accuse the US of human rights violations. This time I would think it's a valid criticism.
