Did the jury sleep through this trial? Did they miss this creep's deranged rantings and desires for more 9-11s? Granted that's not a basis for death, but this guy was a willing accomplice in 9-11 and could have stopped it had he cooperated with the FBI. He did not! He choose to remain silent and thus the blood of 3000 people far better than he who's shoes he's not worthy to lick clean is on his vile hands.

Al Qaeda has got to be laughing their butts off at this country. We're just not serious about combatting these people with an iron fist or in destroying them. We've grown too complacent.

Compare this trial to the one he would have received for a similiar crime in Saudi Arabia!

He wanted martyrdom and was denied. He will probably not survive life inside the prison population and my guess is that he will spend the rest of his life in solitary. Let him rot.

In a way, I think denying him the martyrdom he was seeking is a fitting punishment. Still, it might be looked on by our enemies as a sign of weakness.

John Kerry and the rest of the Dems should be happy. Finally, we're dealing with terrorism in a more "sensitive" way.

I may be wrong, but from what I understand it is cheaper to give them life than execute them with all the expenses involved in the appeal process.
Of course there is such a thing as "prison justice."
so if he is discovered hanging in his cell one day; don't be surprised...

My idea would be to have him in a 12x12 cage with minimum subsistence food and water, and nothing more.
What is sad...He will probably live the "Life of Riley"
in some federal playpen.

On the one hand, I'm pleased that he's denied his martyrdom. On the other, I don't think his sorry carcass should be using up space, air, and food on this planet. Perhaps a better penalty (forever denied because of our alleged "civilized" condition) would be to put him in a burning building with no way for him to escape, and just let the flames and smoke slowly do to him what his compadres did to our people.

While I think this guy is a poster boy for the death penalty, in some ways this may be a better sentance. What he wanted was martyrdom ...what he is likely getting is 23 hours alone in a cell every day for the rest of his miserable life ...no 72 virgins for him. I would however hope that he would serve his time in a maximum security federal prison, but in the general population. It would be very fitting to have him being sodomized, beaten and likely knifed.

I am glad he got life. Death would be an easy out. For someone who hates America so much I can think of no worse fate than spending the rest of his miserable life in a tiny cell in an American prison.

He wanted to be killed for what he did.

The jury said "no way, dude. You will live."

Now no jihadist can start blowing crap up in his name. His mission - - to die for Islam - - is a miserable failure. He's not a hero now to his bretheren. He's just a number in the US federal prison system. He will be jailed, silenced, and forgotten. For a psychopath like him, it is a fate worse than the death penalty.

How long before there is a hostage-taking and a demand for the release of Mouusawi?

Since life imprisonment sometimes means something else, is he eligible for parole?

How long before American civilians are taken hostage and executed in an attempt to get him freed?

I wonder if some local prosecuter can bring him up on state charges where he will be more likely to get fried?

This is not justice. The man was proven to conspire to an act of mass murder. The man was proven to actually abet the act. The reason for justice is not revenge or deterrence, but to reinforce the idea that justice is central to civilization -- we the people always reminded that punishment follows crime.

The crime and its perpretator are placed opposite the victims. The life of the proven perp should not be highlighted as more valuable than those of the victims merely because the judgement takes place under civilized rules and the victims were "judged" outside of the law.

When there are a million loopholes to frustrate justice, it calls more attention to a Byzantine process than to justice itself.
