Judge to Moussaoui at sentencing...

[quote]"Mr. Moussaoui, you came here to be a martyr in a great big bang of glory," she said, "but to paraphrase the poet T.S. Eliot, instead you will die with a whimper."[/quote]

Justice is served
[/quote]

Very witty, and very true. In my opinion, the death penalty is very wrong and un-necessary. I'm glad that Moussaoui recieved life in prison.

God bless-

[quote]French authorities said Thursday they may eventually press the United States to have Moussaoui serve his life sentence in France under agreements providing for transfer of convicts. They were awaiting formal word of his sentencing conditions. [/quote]I think it's sad that some people are gleeful about the terrible conditions will live with in a SuperMax facility. Is that revenge I hear?
I'ts great to be cut off from society by being in solitary confinement, but what if he's transferred to France? Does France have SuperMax? Will France keep him from having contact with the outside world?
What motivation will Moussaoui have to repent while he is in SuperMax? Any at all? With no outside contact, what will influence him? Will Moussoui slowly lose touch with reality and go insane and lose the ability to repent? Is that the right thing to do? Or in his case, is a sure and just punishment be more humane with a clear and sure deadline and motivation to make peace with God and repent. None of us live forever. Is God cruel when he allows people like Moussaui to cause the untimely death of 3,000 souls without regard for their opportunity to repent? Justice is death for his actions. Mercy is providing him a clear and firm time frame to repent and make peace with God. Don't you think it would be a blessing and a gift to know your hour of death so that you can make sure you are in a state of Grace?

I agree with Jas. Supermax time is worse torture than death.
