I think we will be seeing a plethora of these kind of cases in the near future, considering that the Senate passed a better surveillance bill yesterday.
Why do we not have a law which mandates the DEATH penalty for ALL terror acts or plotting? It’s not as though these monsters can be rehabilitated. Twenty years, with half off for “good behavior” for plotting to murder thousands of people IS A JOKE, which also shows that we are not yet serious about this war (and it isn’t a war against “terror”, folks).
