Tel-Chai Nation

A verdict was reached, and it appears that that was what resulted in Zacarias Moussaoui only getting life imprisonment, when the death sentence is what's required in a case like this. More coverage here from Hot Air and Michelle Malkin.

Here's what Michelle said about the monster's defense two weeks ago:

Playing the mental illness card allows the blind to continue deluding themselves about what University of London, King's College, professor Efraim Karsh calls Islamic imperialism. Jihadists didn't start claiming war on non-believers in 2001 or 1993 or 1948. They have aspired to conquer for ages. These historical claims are "frequently dismissed by Westerners as delusional, a species of mere self-aggrandizement or propaganda," Karsh writes in his new book. "But the Islamists are perfectly serious, and know what they are doing. Their rhetoric has a millennial warrant, both in doctrine and in fact, and taps into a deep undercurrent that has characterized the political culture of Islam from the beginning."

Yet, the bleeding hearts foolishly and suicidally persist with their Poor Little Jihadist propaganda and call for sympathy and understanding for the Root Causes that fueled the 9/11 hijackers, Moussaoui, convicted Islamic shoebomber Richard Reid, the Muslim gunman who murdered two people at Los Angeles International Airport's El Al ticket counter in 2002, and the Koran-invoking Tar Heel terrorist who rammed his SUV into a busy student square at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. And on and on.

On Monday, while Moussaoui's defense team played their violins in court, apologists across Europe and the Muslim world played the same song for the suicide bomber who murdered nine innocent civilians and wounded scores more at a Tel Aviv restaurant. The bomber packed his explosives with nails and shrapnel soaked in rat poison to increase the suffering of the victims.

Police had to pick bits of flesh off the blood-drenched streets and parked car windshields.

But it's not the fault of terrorist Sami Salim Mohammed Hammed and his sponsors at Islamic Jihad. Blame "Israeli aggression" and "anti-Arab racism"!

The dry-eyed know there is one Root Cause for this carnage. It's not America, Israel, racism or psychological imbalances. It's evil. Just evil.

And, as what Moussaoui said in contempt of everyone on his way out of the courtroom shows, the whole notion that he'd be made a martyr by excecuting him was little more than a very clever trick to discourage the legal system from doing away with such a sick little cannibal. As Peggy Noonan (via Michelle) says, they should have killed him. Because look at what Jacques Chirac is doing now, he's asking for Moussaoui to be given to France to imprison. Yeah right, and then what if creepy Chirac were to release him later on, whereupon he would sooner or later go back to his murderous activities, which could even include raping and murdering French citizens. The French have enough problems already, which Chirac too is responsible for.
