TAMPA -- Former University of South Florida student Ahmed Mohamed got a 15-year sentence today for providing material support to terrorism.

With a name like Mohammed & his dastardly deeds, he may have deserved the 15 years.

at his age, at his intelligence, how he has become committed to this path
Many terrorists have been young and well educated. This kind of statement from the judge just shows how accepted the "poverty causes terrorism" lie has become.

"I still wonder why this young man in front of me at his age, at his intelligence, how he has become committed to this path,"More amazingly, why doesn't the judge understand....why this young man was committed to his path....ie....jihad.

Only 15 years? He’ll be out in 3 to 5. Give him 30 so he gets 15.

He’ll need guards in prison. Once the Aryan Nation guys know of him, he won’t be around too long.

So he was sentenced for the technical video on YouTube? Sounds a little questionable. Do any instructional videos on firearms now fall into this catagory? Or the people at gun shows who sell copies of the
Anarchist's Cookbook?I think being found with explosives in SC are going to be the real deal. Of course, this didn't help:
Prosecutors also gave more details about letters Mohamed had written while being housed at the Hillsborough County jail.
In a letter to a guard, Mohamed wrote, "You guys are seriously pathetic." He taunted them by calling them desperate housewives and housekeepers.
