The sentence was a stunning rebuke to prosecutors who had insisted on a prison term of at least 30 years and portrayed Hamdan throughout the trial as a hardened al-Qaeda warrior. The jury of six military officers convicted him Wednesday of supporting al-Qaeda by driving and guarding bin Laden and ferrying weapons for the terror group, but he was acquitted of terror conspiracy.Of course, in a civilian court, much of the evidence that got him that sentence would not have been even have been admissible.
I'm not sure when he is technically due to finish his sentence, but for his sake, I hope that it is after January 20, 2009, because I would expect retribution from Bush and His Evil Minions™.
