The Jury was Right
The jury decided yesterday that Zacharias
Moussaoui didn't deserve the death penalty for his part in the 9/11
attacks.
I
agree.
We cannot pervert our legal
system for one man. We killed Timothy McVeigh, we gave McNicols life in prison
for conspiracy. The verdict of life imprisonment without parole is consistent
with our current legal standards. This war we're fighting is about preserving
our culture from external threat, and changing our standards willy nilly for
everyone that pisses us off would be unjust and would pervert that which we are
fighting for.
I only have one problem
with the verdict. They had the wrong charges.
Putting Mousaoui on a civil trial was incorrect.
We are at war with Islam. He is an enemy in that war. He was in our country,
under false pretenses, not identified as an enemy agent. The venue should have
been in a military court and the charges should have been espionage.
We can still deliver him to a military
court and charge him with espionage. And then put him against a wall and drill
his brain with ten 7.62mm bullets.
Now,
that would be justice.
