I don't understand the acquittal ... this guy confessed to assisting KSM with the "slaughter" of Pearl. Maybe, just maybe, one day we will be able to convict KSM of the murder and martyr him. If the military commissions actually have trials.

#4 I don't understand the acquittal

Pakistan -- Pearl was Jewish. They don't really think any crime was committed.

#5 I don't understand the acquittal

Pakistan wants to reward him for the work, but America keeps noticing. He’s gone through several rounds of this, as revealed by a quick search of Rantburg’s archives, which I’ve added to the article.

#6 Pakistan did arrest him though...and KSM et al...back in the day.

But today is a new day and this is what we get for not having a truly functional military commissions system to try him as a war criminal. So I blame us for relying on other countries beyond the initial detention.

#7 We were breathing down their collective necks back in the day, Tennessee.
