With a Whimper
please comment.





Publicly blasting the United States one last time, al Qaeda terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui was formally sentenced to life in prison Thursday for his role in the September 11 attacks.

"God curse America. God bless and save Osama bin Laden -- you will never get him," he told a packed federal courtroom that included family members of people killed in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema responded: "You came here to be a martyr and die in a big bang of glory.

"But to paraphrase the poet T.S. Eliot, instead you will die with a whimper," she said, borrowing a line from "The Hollow Men." ...

CNN senior legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said Moussaoui most likely will be locked up inside the federal Supermax prison in Florence, Colorado, which is sometimes known as the "Alcatraz in the Rockies."

"It is a place of extraordinary security, 23 hours a day in cells, one hour of recreation," Toobin said. "It is as close to permanent solitary confinement as exists in our prison system." ...

Jurors were stone-faced Wednesday as the lengthy verdict form was read in court. Spectators, including some September 11 family members, fell silent and Moussaoui showed no immediate reaction.

As he left the courtroom, Moussaoui clapped his hands and said: "America, you lost. I won."

sad
this article is in a way realy sad....how people are willing to take their life just to change something.and they probably havent changed a thing[for the better]...they just made it worse...and it seems theres no end to this.Until world politicians start to think beyond capitalism[thats probably a never-never scenario.. ..probably for a 200 years or so. ]

Hi ODIN 0ERO,

I'd like to welcome you to TSG and we're glad to have you with us.


As you've started 10 new threads in two days, it looks like you may have skipped reading the rules so please be sure to do so. In the meantime, I would just like to point this particular section out to you regarding "forum flooding".

No spanking though, we save that for our really naughty members.


Forum Flooding - (Applies only to Random and CivDeb, not to technical forums!) While we do not want to discourage members from posting new threads, to be fair to all members we must limit the number of new threads started by the same member to prevent "forum flooding." As a rule of thumb, you should strive to limit starting new threads on average to no more than 3 or 4 new threads per week. We will enforce the "spirit" rather than the "letter" of the rule. As an example, you may want to post 6 good threads in a week and only one or two the next week. Please be considerate of other members when deciding to start a new thread. Do a search of threads that already exist—chances are you will find one that covers your "new" topic.

Thanks for your understanding,

Yeah, but you got to like the enthusiasm even if misplaced in some instances.

No problem. Some members consider the spanking a reward though.
