Watch: 9/11 anniversary marked



A full two decades after their capture, the U.S. military commission “Trial of the Century” against the five accused leaders of the 9/11 attacks appeared finally back on track earlier this year.

Then came another delay in pre-trial hearings this past July. And in August, a bombshell: The Department of Defense disclosed that prosecutors in its Office of Military Commissions are considering a plea deal to spare the lives of self-admitted plot mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four alleged accomplices in exchange for admissions of guilt in the attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people 22 years ago today.

No pre-trial agreement has been finalized, “and may never be finalized” with the five men being held at the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, according to a Pentagon letter sent to survivors and families of those killed in the attacks.

  1. I remember where I was and what I was doing on this fateful day. My heart was broken and bleeding for all those that lost their lives. I prayed that God took them immediately to Heaven. May God continue to bless all those that are still coping with the loss of a family member, friends or acquaintances. God please be with our Great Nation and protect her from those that wish to do us harm.

  2. I wonder how George W Bush feels today. After being told that the nation was under the attack, he did not move from kids school listening to duck story. Isn't something wrong with the picture?
