Suicide Videos
If you were a terrorist and were about to kill yourself what would you say ? Click here to find some good suggestions 'Plotters made suicide videos'. This came about in a court case where they are presenting evidence of the guys that are responsible for you not being able to take liquids on the airplane. The interesting information that this brings to light is what is required to convict a terrorists ? In this case the prosecution is taking place in the UK but.. .. If you were on a jury could you be open-minded about someone who was caught sneaking explosive material onto an airplane ? What should be the punishment for people like this ? Jack Bauer would probably torture them to death .... what about in real life how do we deal with these terrorists what should be the penalties for attempted terrorism ?

Well, seeing as how they never actually killed anyone, I would say that the death penalty is probably not an option in the real world, especially in the UK. If they were tried in Texas, then maybe. In my personal world view, it would be great if we could extradite them to Singapore and give them a few canings with their life imprisonment term. Honestly, terrorists who admit to and are proud of being terrorists are worse then scum.
Anyway, that having been said- I would imagine that in most jurisdictions you would not be able to sentence them to death without them actually having killed someone. Life in prison, absolutely when the evidence is undeniable like it is in this case.
