Some of the Obama administration are trying to argue that Ghailani's conviction on one count is a victory. The Justice Department is now hoping to secure a life sentence for that one charge so they can brush this embarrassment under the table.

The Ahmed Ghailani case underscores the necessity of Obama's quiet decision to change course and lift the ban he imposed after his inauguration on new military commission trials at Guantanamo.

The prosecution of Ahmed Ghailani is hanging by a thread because of the Obama administration's ideological insistence on treating terrorists like common criminals and trying them in federal courts.

A federal court ruling has vindicated the Obama Justice Department's claim that the CIA interrogation program is effective in producing actionable intelligence about al-Qaeda plots that cannot be obtained in any other way.

Speakers will provide an overview on the state of the war on terror and discuss new directions for military and intelligence policy in the battle against al Qaeda.

The near-total acquittal of an al Qaeda agent in New York should be the last gasp for President Obama's misguided effort to fight the war on terror in the courtroom.

For two years, President Barack Obama has pretended that terrorism is a crime, that prisoners are unwanted, and that Gitmo is unneeded.
