Hollow "victories" in terror war.(Brief Article)
"Justice Department officials insist their record since the attacks on the United States reflects a successful strategy of catching suspected terrorists long before they can launch deadly plots, even if that involves charging them with lesser crimes," noted a September 7 AP story. "Yet some legal experts and Bush administration critics say many such cases are pumped up by overzealous prosecutors."
One illustration is the collapse of a case in Detroit involving two men who were convicted of offering material support for terrorism. In early September, the Justice Department reached an agreement with defense attorneys to drop the terrorism-related charges--thereby nullifying the first successful terrorism prosecution after 9-11.
