Canadian convicted of terrorism in U.S. asks for 2nd chance (pull out your hanky)
CBC News ^

A Canadian who was convicted of plotting a terror attack targeting Times Square and the subway system in New York City is asking a judge for a second chance ahead of a sentencing hearing in April.

In a 24-page handwritten submission before his sentencing, Abdulrahman El-Bahnasawy said frustration with how the West treated Islam turned him toward extremism.

The 20-year-old, a Mississauga, Ont., resident, described anger at the U.S. and its allies for "disrupting our life (sic) and murdering our civilians with reckless airstrikes ...," writing later that it was appropriate to use similar methods back. He wrote he was not trying to justify his actions, but just wanted to explain his thought process at the time.

Abdulrahman El-Bahnasawy 
He sure sounds like a rock ribbed Canadian fellow who swings a mean ice hockey stick, knocks back a few Molsons and tears up the QEW in a restored Beaumont Acadian SD396, EH?

Sure, give him a second chance to do what he intended to do in the first place. Next time he just might succeed.

...is asking a judge for a second chance...

Don’t send this guy anywhere near Broward County, Florida! I understand folks down there are given 3 or 40 chances, until they kill a bunch of people! No I’m not being sarcastic!

His second chance begins the day he finishes his term, walks out of prison, and is sent packing to Kuwait.

A Canadian . . . Abdulrahman El-Bahnasawy

This "Canadian" is a terrorist. We should lock him up for a few months, then execute him.

another 20yo expert of world affairs and politics. who knew there are so many?

find a hole and put him in it for a long long time. When he’s old, turn him loose on the then current crop of 20yo experts.
