Breaking now from MSNBCnews
Well, Salim Hamdan’s sentence of which 5 1/2 years,(including five years and a month already served) since being charged at Guantanamo Bay, fell far short of the 30 years to life prosecutors wanted.
Hamdan thanked the jurors for the sentence and repeated his apology for having served bin Laden.
“I would like to apologize one more time to all the members and I would like to thank you for what you have done for me,” Hamdan told the panel of six U.S. military officers, who were hand-picked by the Pentagon for the first U.S. war crimes trial in a half-century.
Hamdan waved both hands as he left the courtroom, saying “Bye, bye” in English.
It will be interesting to to see if Hamdan will be held past his sentence or released this year…
