BREAKING NEWS: President Obama has drafted an executive order to halt all trials at the Guantanamo Detention Center for 120 days with the intention to close the detention center within a year.
BEHIND THE NEWS: This means that terrorists like Ramzi Binalshibh and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed will not be receiving their punishments anytime soon for their roles in the 9/11 attacks. Binalshibh was suspected to be involved in the USS Cole attack in 2000 while Mohammed is said to be the 9/11 mastermind. Interestingly, neither of the them want the trials to be postponed because they want to be found guilty and die as martyrs. It is not known yet what will be done with the 250+ terrorist detainees.
