Actually, if it's punishment your after it's better to have the life sentence for these terrorists. It is a humiliation to them among their peers and almost assures they won't get their 70 virgins. Plus, it will be excruciating. Living in prison is hard. Dying is the easy part.

I dissagree, the death penalty is the harsher punishment. No body with any sense believes that there are 70 virgins who deserve eternity with a terrorist anyway.

Life sentence is a merciful sentence, because it gives him many years to repent.
