It is not quite clear if he will be in jail at all. Yeah, mandatory 20, but his lawyers already told his single conviction will be appealed against.

Quite possibly, he'll join those former Gitmo prisoners who're enjoying ice cream in Bermuda.

The Washington Times version:

Gitmo detainee convicted of 1 charge

The Obama administration's plan to prosecute suspected terrorists in civilian courts was dealt a serious blow Wednesday when a jury acquitted a former Guantanamo detainee of all but one of the hundreds of charges he faced.

conspiracy to damage government property.

So, if I go down and throw a rock through the window of the post office I’m just as guilty. Nice.

This is exactly what people predicted would happen, if these cases were tried in open court.

BTTT.

Consider who’s running the Justice Department. Then tell how much chance there is he will be extradited to Kenya.

These people are fools, because they are not going to get the break that this terrorist killer just got.
