Those convicted are part of a group of 545 defendants on trial for the killing of a police officer, attempted killing of two others, attacking a police station and other acts of violence.

More than 150 suspects stood trial, the others were tried in absentia. Sixteen were acquitted.

529 x 72 = 38,088 virgins...No way....

[skeeter]

It a good start.

This is in the “first step of a 1000 mile journey” category.

Aren’t mass graves what keeps giving these people years of problems.

[tomkat]

The more, the merrier

[Star Traveler]

Well ... that couldn’t happen to a better group!

[alloysteel]

But if Egypt had adopted Shari’a law, surely these men would have gone free....

After all, they were thisclose - and doesn’t that count for something?

[Awgie]

Was Obama one of the Brothers convicted in absentia?

[Gamecock]

I KILL YOU!

[skeeter]

Probably, but at least their planting the right ones this time.

I’ve never really believed in the electric chair. I think electric bleachers make more sense. This is a great opportunity to put that technolcoy to work for humanity.

Immediately carry out the sentences on those in custody, form police squads to apprehend and return those fugitives that are still at large, dead or alive. Initiate indictments and trials against any remaining operatives involved, including foreigners.

just cleaning out the garbage and exterminating the vermin. Now, for the Mahdi.

But the electric chair can be the most environmentally responsible of all execution devices. Just strap the subject in on a stormy night, hook a lightning rod to the input terminals, and wait for nature to take its course.

Almost 400 still at large, but this is a start.

[canuck_conservative]

Good riddance.

At least this is 529 terrorists who won’t be threatening the public anymore.

Should have done this at Gitmo too, instead of releasing those pukes back into the world to do more mayhem.

[elpadre]

Mr. Obama will not like this!!

[cashless]

Any chance any of those convicted in absentia are the MuzBro brothers that have been salted in this administration by Caliph Sheiks Obama and Clapper (or is it Brennan? Hard to keep up with the MuzBro lovers in this administration...beyond Hillary, that is.)
