On the crucial question of where Khalid Shaikh Mohammed will be tried and in what forum — where nuance will be heavily scrutinized — Eric Holder held out maximum flexibility for President Obama and himself. “The administration is in the process of reviewing the decision as to where Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and the other 9/11 defendants will be tried,” Holder said. “New York is not off the table as a place where they might be tried, although we have to take into consideration the concerns” that the Bloomberg mayoralty has raised about the wisdom of trying KSM in New York. Holder said he expected a decision “in a number of weeks.”
