Al Jazeera's Kristen Saloomey , reporting from New York, explains the US controvery surrounding the extradition of five men suspected of terrorism being tried on United States soil.

Al Jazeera's Saloomey went on to say that the controversial case has "tested the boundaries of national security and civil liberties in the United States", as some in the US believe suspected terorrists should be charged in military tribunals like those in Guantanamo Bay, not civilian courts.
