Jonn Lilyea of the milblog This Ain’t Hell is at Fort Meade, MD today watching a closed-circuit TV relay of the 9/11 military trial for Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and four other terror suspects being tried in a military court at Guantanamo Bay. Luckily for us, he’s live-blogging the whole thing, so not only can you get up-to-the-minute updates of what’s happening in the trial, but his account of the proceedings is probably the only version untainted by any MSM bias (which Jonn has already noted by posting a photo of an “Obama 2012” sticker on a reporter’s car in the parking lot).

In a sane world, this would be the “Trial of the Century,” but instead it’s just a side-note in the day’s news stream. But at least you can have a front-row seat:
