Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani and current New York mayor Michael Bloomberg sharply disagree on civilian court trials for the alleged terrorist masterminds of the 9/11 attacks.

Attorney General Eric Holder announced today that the accused terrorists will be tried in civilian courts rather than in military tribunals in New York City.

Giuliani, was mayor of New York during the 9/11 attacks told Politico

"This is the same mistake we made with the 1993 terrorists who attacked the World Trade Center. We treated them like domestic criminals, when in fact they were terrorists. In the dangerous world we live in today, a nation unable to identify and properly define its enemies is a nation in danger.”

Mayor Bloomberg who recently won re-election says he supports the decision by the U.S. Attorney General.

“It is fitting that 9/11 suspects face justice near the World Trade Center site where so many New Yorkers were murdered.
