Around AmeriKa: Seattle Slayer Sorry

Still wasn't enough.

"Man who killed 1, injured 5 in shooting at Seattle Jewish center gets life sentence" by Associated Press | January 15, 2010

SEATTLE - A man who went on a shooting rampage at a Seattle Jewish center, killing one woman and wounding five others, appealed for forgiveness and blamed his medication as a judge sentenced him yesterday to life in prison without parole....

Oh, no! Another zoned-out Manchurian patsy!!


Naveed Haq, 34, drove from his Eastern Washington home in Pasco to Seattle on July 28, 2006, and held a teenage girl at gunpoint as he forced his way into the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle. He stalked through the second-floor office, firing as workers dove for cover beneath their desks or leapt from windows.

Pamela Waechter, director of the charity’s annual fund-raising campaign, was killed as she fled down a stairwell. The shooting ended after Haq spoke with a 911 operator, criticized Israel and US foreign policy, demanded to get on CNN, then gave himself up, saying he had made his point.

Or made a point for them, right?

Haq was convicted last month at his second trial, after prosecutors detailed his extensive preparations for the attack - including writing anti-Israeli manifestos, mapping the center’s address on the Internet, and test-firing his guns as he drove toward Seattle. They also played jailhouse recordings of conversations in which Haq told his mother he had done “a good thing.’’

His first trial ended with jurors unable to decide whether he was legally insane at the time of the killing....

Yeah, they know the statements and writings are accurate; however, the vehicle of transmission.... sort of discredits the ideas, huh, cui bono?
