I mean when al-Qaida trys to distance themselves from you....you might have a problem if you are one of them.

Moussaoui offered to testify against himself

ALEXANDRIA, Va. - Al-Qaida conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui offered last month to testify for prosecutors against himself at his death-penalty trial and told agents that he did not want to die in prison, according to dramatic last-minute testimony Tuesday.

The bizarre testimony capped a trial that has seen more than its share of the unusual over three tumultuous weeks. Introduced as part of a brief government rebuttal case, this testimony may be the firmest evidence the 37-year-old Frenchman of Moroccan descent hopes for martyrdom through execution and could provide fodder for the closing arguments of both prosecutors and Moussaoui’s court-appointed defense attorneys.

Moussaoui offered on Feb. 2, just before jury selection began, to testify that he was to have hijacked and piloted a fifth plane on Sept. 11, 2001. He did not ask that prosecutors stop pursuing the death penalty in return. He sought only better conditions in prison and a promise not to be called to testify against other al-Qaida members.

1. Is there any doubt Moussaoui is just a patsy/scapegoat?

History repeats and repeats and repeats.

2. and mad as a hatter to boot....

It's incredibly telling that the U.S. government couldn't do better than a show trial of a madman.

3. One can be a terrorist and be crazy at the same time

Moussaoui is as crazy as the unabomber.

4. I think by definition any terrorist is psychologically abnormal.

Doesn't mean he should get capital punishment though. Life in jail, yes - as much or more to protect others from him in the future, as opposed to punishment for past actions.
