[en] Moussaoui gets life

[Largefry07]

What are your thoughts on this subject?

[Dobber]

This is one of those posts that could get out of hand, and should be in the DMZ . That is my thought on the subject.

[Angryminer]

Done.

I will perhaps read up on the topic later. At the moment I'm not able to say much based on facts.

hmmm ... difficult to say ... locked down for the rest of his life or being executed?

[Doux]

He should get life, which'd be right if he were really guilty. I do not approve of death penalty. But then, saying that he is guilty for all 9/11 deaths is a statement difficult to hold, if you ask me.

[Webmaster]

he wants to be somekind of martyr and mocks the court, the lawyers and western liberal society structures.

[Angryminer]

What else can he do? Saying sorry won't help him - so he can just act as if he would win anything out of this. :wink:

also I don't think he would feel need to say sorry and if, he wouldn't say it either...

though I think he deserves life. To be imprisoned for the rest of his life is much better than execution, I mean much "better" punnishment - he will have time to think about death of so many innocent people...

and maybe he will be found innocent.. then he would undoubtely become a martyr and others would come to do what he was executed for

btw, I don't think that he really gets life as is stated in the first post. It's very inobjective and looks like he shuold be executed... death penalty is never a good solution

[Largefry07]

he will have time to think about death of so many innocent people...

This will only make him feel happier. Reports stated that when the victums families testified against him, it appeared that he was joyful over their grief.

[Webmaster]

they captured the 4 planes to cause suffering ... and these people are just worthless christs in their eyes, unbelievers

[Elvain]

so that means we should be sad that he wasn't sentenced to death?

it is very in-christian to express a wish to take bath in blood of someone who wanted to have bath in our blood. Or maybe I misunderstood Christ's words...

how hypocrytical christians are when claiming they are better than moslems!

[Angryminer]

so that means we should be sad that he wasn't sentenced to death?What statement do you respond to?

[Elvain]

What statement do you respond to?to both following my post.. especialy to this:

This will only make him feel happier. Reports stated that when the victums families testified against him, it appeared that he was joyful over their grief.

and to Webmasters:
most of murderers do their murders to cause suffering. And religious murders always kill people because they are worthless unbelievers or they present a danger for their belief.

but that does not mean we should be sorry that we are not as brutal as those fanatics are. Or are we the same fanatics who are happy when someone dies?

I know I am not

Elvain, I think I misunderstood you when you said. To be imprisoned for the rest of his life is much better than execution, I mean much "better" punnishment - he will have time to think about death of so many innocent people...

I thought you meant "better punishment" as in greater suffering. This would not be the cases for he would be joyful for all of the innocent blood he had helped spill.

Now I think that you meant "better punishment" as in the moral aspect of it. This I would have to agree. I was glad that he got life instead of death for a number of reasons.

1.)The Old Testament teaches that if a man takes another man's life, he shall be put to death. Well did Moussaoui take a man's life during the 9-11 attacks? No.

2.)In modern law an Accesorary before the fact is someone who knows and can prevent a crime before it takes place and is subject to the same sentence as the princlepal of the crime. (the person who commits the crime) Was Moussaoui an accesorary before the fact? I believe he was. I think that he could have stop, at least some of, the attacks on that day. So in modern law he is subject to the same punishment as someone who participated in those attacks (if one of them had lived). The punishment would most likely be death. But Chirst teaches forgiveness right? So should we forgive him and let him go free and let the Almighty deal with him on the Day of Judgement? We should never let him go free because he'll turn around and try to do it again. But we ought to forgive him by letting him live out the rest of his life in jail. Since the Father and His Son will deal with him latter. That will be his punishment. Living the rest of his eturnity in the fire. (of course he could escape this by commiting his life to Jesus, but that is unlikely. Not impossible but unlikely)

Now I think that you meant "better punishment" as in the moral aspect of it. This I would have to agree. I was glad that he got life instead of death for a number of reasons.
"better punishment" was meant for both aspects, moral and "revenge", you understood it half well primarily and then completely :go:

[Angryminer]

May I ask wether this is deliberately turning into a discussion on religion? If so, I'll rename the topic.

Oh well, to be honest, no, I won't change the topic, I'll just get unhappy with the offtopic discussion amd make you switch into a different (new?) topic. :wink:

So how about that: If you really want to start a theological discussion on the relationship of law and religion, then create a new thread about that and leave this topic to Moussaoui. Hm?

I apologise.

I have deleted everything that isn't directly connected with Moussaoui
