All over the world, terrorists let out a sigh of relief, knowing that you can go to America, conspire to murder 3,000 innocent civilians, and still live out your days in greater comfort and luxury than their caves could ever afford them.

After Moussaoui’s active, proven participation in a conspiracy that resulted in the brutal mutilation, murder and dismemberment of 3,000 people who had done nothing wrong whatsoever, you bravely stood up and spat on their graves by giving to one of their murderers what they can never have:

Life.

I think that Osama is in a cave somewhere laughing at us right now, pointing to this as more evidence of America as the "paper tiger." I've been listening to the talking heads and there seems to be a sort of general agreement amongst former prosecutors that the two verdicts (first that he was eligible for the death penalty, but then not to give it to him) do not make sense in light of each other. I am also disturbed by the fact that it sounds like they bought his lawyer's sob stories regarding his "rough" childhood and "abusive father" as part of the reason they chose to give him life instead of death. Boo-freaking-hoo.

I think FoxNews' Kimberly Guilfoyle made an excellent point when she said that Moussaoui will have more than a lot of homeless American citizens (roof over his head, three square meals, a mattress, possibly cable TV and internet access?). To me this is just wrong. But, c'est la vie I guess. I also liked her comment about how his "sad" childhood shouldn't have been a factor in their decision because many of the victims of 9-11 probably had worse childhoods than he did and it's not an excuse not to be a man and do something positive with your life.

As a Christian I know that I am supposed to forgive and turn the other cheek, but honestly, I hope the other prisoners at the supermax where Moussaoui lives out the rest of his life show him a good time in the showers EVERY day for the rest of his pathetic life.

I have the utmost respect for the 9-11 families and the way those who were hoping for a death verdict are handling themselves right now. They are much stronger than I think I could be in their shoes.
