Moussaoui update


Al Qaida terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui was found eligible for the death penalty today..gratifying after the problem with witness coaching by one of the Federal prosecutors. Moussaoui had originally maintained that he had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks, though he was an al Qaeda member. He then did an abrupt about face, confessing that he was indeed scheduled to hijack a fifth airliner with shoe bomber Richard Reid and chrash it into the White House.

His trial now goes into a second phase during which the jury will decide his punishment: execution or life imprisonment without the possibility of release.

I say hang him high in a pigskin blanket.
