Moussaoui Gets Life
A Federal jury decided that Zacarias Moussaoui deserves a life sentence for his role in the 9/11 attacks. It's hard to say if this is a more fitting sentence than death. But since it is a Federal sentence, there is no parole.
UPDATE: OK, the story I originally linked did NOT contain this little gem (or it didn't when I first posted this - online stories do get updated and changed):
"America, you lost. I won!" Moussaoui yelled as he was escorted from the U.S. District courtroom in Alexandria after the verdict was read. He clapped his hands as he left.
NOW we know the brave Jihadi gamed the system to get himself spared death.
(All I can figure is that I must have caught the flash when it first came out - it said it was a minute or so old when I posted. I know I did not see those words in the original).
