#1 This guy is begging for the death penalty. Watch our courts let him off with 20 to life. I hate to be the cynic but good lord? What next from this French radical??

#2 Are we surprised? No. This mofo is the one who should be given a mental evaluation, not the Afgani who converted.

#4 He's setting himself up to be a martyr after his execution. I'd say life without non-legal visitation or parole. Gag the lawyer who does visit him. One hour of exercise a day. The rest in solitary. I hope he lives longer than Hess did.

#5 If I rememeber correctly, there were two other middle eastern men rounded up in the days following 9/11. They were described as having their bodies clean shaven (but not their beards) and I think the were taken off a train somewhere. Does anyone know what happened to these two (if in fact they were associated with the attack)? Could these have been more muscle for a 5th hijack?

#6 Clearly he's setting himself up for martyrdom. I'm astonished anyone believes anything he says, without significant outside corroboration. He'd say that he, Robert Reid, Otto the Autopilot, and Rocky the Flying Squirrel planned to hijack a plane, if it would get him to Paradise.

Does anyone know what happened to these two...

They were Indian. Here's a story about how the two were brutally treated while in custody, poor lambs. It also gives the pertinent background on their arrest. One of them, at least, pleaded guilty to credit card fraud, on the advice of his attorney.

#7 They were on a train in Texas if I remember correctly.
