Exhibit A among the reasons why the West is in such grave danger in the war on terror....this spineless failure to understand the nature and severity of the threat.  It seems that for many in Germany, including prosecutors and spouses of victims, that all should be forgiven if this terrorist shows remorse and says "I'm sorry".

Apparently now in Germany at least, 5 life sentences plus fifteen years for multiple murders and terrorism translates into 24 years behind bars, providing you say you are sorry.

May God help us all.......

was that the crew that set us up the bomb in 1972 at
HQ USAREUR?

Another example of why terrorist scum must be executed, not coddled in prison until moronic libs want to release them.

Five life sentences plus fifteen years equals twenty-four years!

If they let her out I hope she gets run over by a tram!

There is no way to predict her future behavior. Using a prediction as a rationalization is a non-sequitur of the first degree.

5 life sentences + 15 years? Sounds like the original punishemnt had it almost right. Liberals are freakin sick.

"A German terrorist serving five life sentences plus 15 years for her involvement in a campaign of murder and kidnapping"

Five x Life + 15 (Kidnapping)= 24 years.

Am I the only one confused?

This is exactly why we need to keep and enforce capital punishment. 20 years down the road when the dust settles and victims are long forgotten the vermin even in the US is often released, sometimes just to be a repeat offender. Frankly I don't care if people like that are rehabilitated according to some PhD who's making an educated guess based on some perceived observation where the "victim" (The incarcerated in the shrinks mind) is acting for the shrink.

They deserve to hang publicly like they use to in the US. People often tell me "The death penalty is about revenge" as if this should turn my view somehow. Yea, it's about revenge, so what? It brings closure to the victims who are are forgotten in these cases. Someone baleling about closure does little; the pedophile murderer dangling on a string, that is an "end". It eliminates this persons memories and thoughts from mankind and the gene-pool. The person being executed gets to feel the horror of being executed just like his victims. The idea of a public hanging like this just makes me want to pack a pick-nick basket and mark it as a family outing on my calender.
