Fatah leader Barghouti handed 5 life sentences

JPost Reg Req’d - EFL
The Tel Aviv District Court on Sunday sentenced senior Fatah leader Marwan Barghouti to five consecutive life sentences and an additional 40 years in prison. Barghouti, who was convicted last month of the murder of five civilians and of involvement in four terror attacks, was handed 20 years for attempted murder and another 20 for membership in a terror organization.

#5  Oh my gosh, they'll leave him there 40 years after he dies?

If they stay true to the sentence, what remains of Barghouti will be "released" after 390 years. :)

It means he will stay in prison until he dies and then during his next four reincarnations (the next one will be a as a dung fly) and he will be released on his fourtieth birthday of the fifth. Ooops he is a muslim so he doesn't reincarnate.

Gotta love that word. Yassin and Rantissi should have been so lucky ... NOT.
