We are still wondering what his crime was?

He and the other seven were the gang that could not shoot straight, nor were they admitted into any "terrorist" organizations.

Go figure.

Hawash confessed to his crime while under duress. Many people confess to crimes they did not commit. That is why we used to have a system of civil rights in this country.

Incidentally, I notice that Hawash did not commit any terrorist acts or associate with any terrorists.

You posted:<font color=blue>"Hawash had achieved much by 2000. He worked at one of the world's greatest companies, earned nearly $360,000 a year, had a circle of friends, and was admired for his volunteer activities.

Hawash pleaded guilty to conspiring to help the Taliban. He also agreed to cooperate fully with the prosecution and waived his right to appeal his conviction and sentence. In return, the government dismissed the other counts against Hawash."<font color=black>

How can Israel ever expect to have peace with a people like the Palestinians, who are so easily indoctrinated to support evil?
