Deeno13 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5380544 Theres the link to the story. Do you agree with the choice? I personally don't care for the death penalty for anyone including a man as sick as him. Plus in this case I think it's more of a punishment. He wanted to die and be remembered as a martayr. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

____ Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 He wanted the death penalty and they're going to make sure he doesn't get it. Couldn't have turned out any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazardmaster Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 He wanted to die as a martyr; the court saw that. They didn't give him what he wanted; he deserved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meesa Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I am torn between the two... I believe the death penalty is good. The Bible says that if a man kills another, execute him. (with exception of war, accidents, etc). So in one way, I was hoping for death. Yet in a different sense, I do not want him to die. He would be a martyr. Somebody for all other terrorists to look up too... "we wanna be like him". So I am glad he got life in prison. I just hope they make it miserable... hell on earth. There is no excuse, ever was any excuse, and never will be any excuse for what he did. Ever. To put that many people through pain and horror and fear is just sick. Now that is looking at it from the point of view as seeing the impact on the rest of the world. If it was him and only him that knew of this punishment, or maybe the rest of the world couldn't care less, then I would hope that he would get death. For him there will be nothing worse than death. Ever. But when taking into account the thoughts and actions of the outside world, I am glad he got life in prison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GhostRanger Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I'd rather he die alone, rotting in a cell than as a martyr That's such a good point. Even if I was for the death penalty, I wouldn't want to martyr this guy. It just gives terrorists everywhere a boost. Everyone will remember the man who was executed by the Americans, but everyone will forget him if he just sits in a jail cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I heard when they announced the decision he shouted something like "I win, you lose" and then people wondered if they had made the right choice or not. I think he would have shouted this whatever the verdict was just to try and get one over them. I'm glad he's not been given the death sentence (even though I support the death penalty) so instead he will sit in jail for the rest of his days and not being able to die as a martyr like he wanted.

BlueLancer Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I'm not sure if it was mentioned in that article, but during the WTC incidents, Moussai was already in jail. So he's really getting punished for nothing, the CIA had no idea America would be under a terrorist attack, and he is getting a life sentence just for 'not telling' something. But given that his behavior if he got out of jail would be quite predictable, for the sake of national security it's better he stays in the jail.Sorry for not posting for about a year 8) Lots of interesting threads have spawned here.

I was under the assumption that he was suppose to be flying one of the planes to another target and was arrested beforehand. Not just that he knew and didn't tell anyone.

1_man_army Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Making a martyr out of him would have been such a stupid move politically but I have to say I still thought he'd get the death penalty. Also is there any news on how/where he will be detained. I assume he wont be put in a normal penentiary alongside a general population of inmates who'll be baying for his blood. Torcher him. Best punishment for any killer. Amendment VIII - Cruel and Unusual punishment. Ratified 12/15/1791. Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. :? Well we already know that the CIA get around that by flying suspects out of the US for torture, but hell if it saves lives then Id say its worth it.

Yoshi161 Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I think someone already said this but; i'll be suprised if he lives in that prison. Somone will probably kill him most likely, if he doesn't get killed it will be a shocker to me. But I liked the decision the jurors made on this decision. They man was ready to get killed, become a martyr, and go to "Heaven" to meet his "Virgins" and live in paradise the rest of his life.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 He definitely needs to go under suicide watch. Doubt he would want to live in his cell for the rest of his life doing nothing practically. Anyway the court in my opinion made the right choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordjake Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I agree with the court system's decisions majority of the cases, and I agree with this decision also. I trust that the jury made the proper decision after reviewing all the facts of the trial. If we had made a martyr of him, more people would take the initiative to repeat what he did because they look up to him. It's more humbling to die in prison alone, than to be put to death for one's beliefs. Plus if we want to humble/humiliate him further, we can always do what we did to Saddam and put pictures of him in his underwear all over the media :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

118_118_To_Advertise_here Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Get him a hair cut, beard cut, tidy him up... Then put him in a cell with the meanest, henchest monster in the jail (So like him but hencher) Then double insulate the walls and doors.... No one will hear him scream Nice to know he aint getting what he wants though. Death is the easy way out of a bad situation. Low level player's with life,'s 'noobs, make high level players with out lifes feel good about themselve's. But, it's only untill the high level player realise's how unfulfilled his life is, it's to late to apologise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
