Almost a year agoZacarias Moussaoui pleaded guilty . . . to taking part in a broad al Qaeda conspiracy that resulted in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, saying Osama bin Laden personally instructed him to fly an airplane into the White House.
It now seems
possible that Moussaoui may not be sentenced to death. (You can follow all the action
here.) There must be options; for example:
1. Imprison Moussaoui but do not sequester him.
2. Drop him off outside the gate of a U.S. military encampment in Iraq, armed with an empty Uzi -- and wearing his orange jump suit.
3. Announce that he will be released from custody at Ground Zero at a certain time, and that he will be wearing his orange jump suit (with leg-iron accessories).
It would only be fair to let Moussaoui choose from among the options.
