Israel Gives West Bank Hamas Chief 54 Life Terms

[An Nahar] An Israeli military court on Sunday sentenced a former military leader of Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, to multiple life sentences after convicting him of ordering the killing of dozens of Israelis, the army said.

"The Ofer military court sentenced Ibrahim Hamed to 54 life sentences," a statement said, referring to an Israeli court and prison complex located in the West Bank between Jerusalem and Ramallah.

"Hamed, who was the head of the military wing of Hamas in the West Bank, was convicted last week of responsibility for a long list of suicide kabooms which brought about the deaths of 46 Israelis and the wounding of more than 400 Israelis," the army statement said.

in 2006 with the help of Mosab Youssef, the son of a Hamas founder who became an undercover agent for Israel's Shin Bet security agency, Israeli media said.

Haaretz newspaper said Hamed was behind suicide kaboom attacks in a Jerusalem cafe, a crowded city square and the Hebrew University, among many others.

Depends. Are they planning on leaving his corpse there for the next few millenia to keep subsequent terrorists company?
