criminal trial from 9/11, the most important trial, and we elected to go with a court that is untested, untried as opposed to the established federal courts which deliver justice in a fair way. >> in terms of recent terrorism prosecutions, i mentioned feissle, abdulmutallab, some of the other international, or at least al qaeda-minded terrorism suspects who have been prosecuted in federal courts. did anything happen in the prosecution of any of those suspects or anybody else like them in recent years that should raise the doubts of the courts' ability to handle a trial like that? >> absolutely not. the federal courts are equipped. they have experienced defense bar, the prosecution, the judges. they're used to handling these cases. obviously issues come up. they're difficult issues, but they deal with them. and the process has integrity. it's a bona fide process. >> centuries in the making. jonathan hafetz, seton hall
