16 life terms? sucks for her, she doesnt get her 72 virgins! Hamas militant gets 16 life terms for role in Sbarro bombing By Haaretz Service A female Hamas activist was sentenced by a military tribunal Thursday to 16 consecutive life terms for assisting the terrorist who blew up the Sbarro restaurant in Jerusalem two years ago, killing 15 people. Hamas activist Ahlam Tamimi drove the suicide bomber to the site of the attack on August 9, 2001. Fifteen people were killed and more than a hundred others were wounded when the landmark restaurant in the center of Jerusalem was blown up. Tamimi did not express regret for her actions. She was sentenced at the Ofer military camp to an additional 15 years on top of the 16 life terms. A month prior to the Sbarro attack, Tamim placed an explosive device at a Jerusalem grocery store. It detonated, but did not cause any damage. The Hamas suicide bomber who blew up Sbarro, 23-year-old Ahmed Al-Masari, carried an explosive device hidden in a hand bag weighing a few kilograms and littered with hundreds of metal nuts and bolts.
