Radio Netherlands ^ | July 13 2003

A court in the Moroccan city of Casablanca has sentenced ten Muslim fundamentalists to death. Eight men received life sentences; several others were sentenced to twenty years.

The radical Muslims are members of the Salafia Jihadia, the movement held responsible for the suicide attacks in Casablanca on May 16th, in which 40 people were killed.

The convicts were already in custody at the time of these attacks on charges of murder, attempted murder, kidnapping and extortion. Immediately afterwards, the Moroccan authorities said they would crack down hard on all forms of terrorism.

50,000 people go to a baseball game, but the game was rained out. A refund is then due. The team is about to mail refunds when the Congressional Democrats stopps them and decrees that they send out refund amounts based on the Democrat National Committee's interpretation of fairness. After all,if the refunds are made based on the price each person paid for the tickets, most of the money would go to the wealthiest ticket holders. That would be unconscionable!

The same thing is happening in Indonesia, and (hesitantly) in Saudi Arabia, as authorities wake up to the fact ALL of these groups are seeking the violent overthrow of their own governments, and the installation of Islamic Caliphates.

As long as the targets were "only Jews and Infidels",these governments were willing to look the other way; but now the shoe is on their foot, and the feces is beginning to hit the fan.

It turns out not to be at work here but I was going to laud this verdict as an instance of justice delivered quickly. But sternly will do.
