Here’s my hot take: This trial will happen exactly when pigs fly and the Dallas Cowboys win a Super Bowl. Never.
Think about it. By 2028, we might have a new president, a new Supreme Court, or a new way to settle disputes (rock-paper-scissors, anyone?). The political will is gone. The public has moved on. The “War on Terror” is about as trendy as a flip phone.
Judge Sets Trial Date For 9/11 Plotters
The lawyers are betting the house that this case will be dismissed or plea-bargained into oblivion. Because what else can you do? Hold a trial for a dead man walking in a half-dead system?
So, next time you hear “Khalid Sheikh Mohammed trial delayed again,” just nod, laugh a little, and say, “Pass the sugar, please.” Because that’s all we can do at this point.
Unless you know a really good time machine. Send that to the judge, would you?
But hey, mark your calendar for February 2028. Or don’t. I promise I’ll be right here, writing the same article, with a fresh batch of sarcasm.
In the meantime, let’s just agree that the legal system moves slower than a glacier on Xanax. Cheers to that.
