khalid shaikh mohammed and the other four detainees were charged at the military tribunal at guantanamodropped because president obama wanted khalid shaikh mohammed tried in a civilian court on u.s. soil. now, that plan has faced a lot of opposition at the time. some opposition from some families of victims of the 9/11 attacks, some opposition from democrats and republican politicians, and ultimately congress blocked the plan as congress prohibited any detainees from guantanamo bay being transferred to the united states, and that's why we're essentially back where we were before, that khalid shaikh mohammed and the other four detainees have been charged and will stand trial at the military tribunal at guantanamo bay. >> they're not new charges, they're old charges refiled, and that means guantanamo bay remains open as opposed to what president obama originally wanted. >> that's right. one of his election pledges in 2008, president obama wanted to close guantanamo bay within one year. a lot of people saw that as very optimistic at the time and ultimately that plan didn't happen. and guan
