The Central Criminal Court of Iraq in Baghdad convicted 65 people in recent weeks for a range of crimes, including an Iraqi who was sentenced to death for joining armed groups to participate in terrorist activities.
The convictions and sentences were issued from Sept. 15 to Oct. 4.
The man who received the death sentence was a member of Al Qaida, according to a news release issued Sunday by Multi-National Force-Iraq.
Four defendants were sentenced to life imprisonment after being observed preparing to attack a checkpoint with a rocket-propelled grenade and small arms, according to the release.
After a exchange of fire, the defendants ran into a mosque and ground forces were fired upon and attacked by mortar rounds.
I have to wonder why this kind of information never seems to make the Network Headlines.
Read the full story.
Stories like this never make headlines because the liberal media want us to think, like they do, that we are fighting a war with no cause, and no results. They have blown off the reports when they actually did find wmd's. If they did report that in the headlines, then they would confirm what some of us already know.....THEY ARE LIARS!!!! The dem's wont let that get out now will they!?!
