Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee plan to question attorney general nominee Loretta Lynch about why the Obama administration has been treating foreign terrorists as if they are civilian criminals, putting some on trial in federal court rather than before military commissions. In advance of her confirmation hearing on Wednesday, Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Judiciary Committee chairman, and Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, chairman of the Subcommittee on Crime and Terrorism, wrote to Lynch and Attorney General Eric Holder demanding answers about the administration's extradition of al-Qaida terrorists to the U.S. for civilian trials.
