Another 9/11 Related Farce

This is the trial that the media should be focused on; not Michael Jackson, not Scott Peterson, not Robert Blake. This One. The only person in the United States charged in connection with the 9/11 tragedy... a French national.

This story has it all. The defendant originally dismissed his court-appointed defense attorneys because he said they were incompetent. He wanted to represent himself, but the judge denied him that right in 2003 saying his legal filings "include contemptuous language that would never be tolerated from an attorney and will no longer be tolerated from this defendant."

What the hell?

Now the media reports that the defendant intends to plead guilty, but the judge has to determine if the defendant is mentally competent to make the plea.

Again, what the hell? And why isn't this news all over the front pages? Well, I'll tell you why: the press has abdicated its duties. Period.
