Citing gay marriage, KSM rejects lawyers

September 11th mastermind and terrorist extraordinaire Khalid Sheikh Mohammed yesterday explained to a Guantánamo military tribunal why he was rejecting legal counsel:

I will not accept anybody, even if he is Muslim, if he swears to the American Constitution,'' he said, vowing to follow Islamic shariya and scorning the U.S. Constitution "because it allows for same sexual marriage.''

He also complained that the courtroom artist made his nose look too wide.

(Hat tip: Emptywheel, who notes that KSM's assertion about the legal status of same-sex marriage is open to question.)
