 JERUSALEM - A Palestinian militant was on Thursday handed 12 life sentences by an Israeli military court after being found guilty of involvement in a suicide bombing that killed 11 people, a legal source said.
| Apparently the Israelis don't hand out death sentences for stuff like this. Pity. |
Hilmi Hamash, 24, from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades group affiliated to Palestinian president Mahmud AbbasÂ’s so-called moderate Fatah party, was found guilty of helping the bomber who blew himself up on a Jerusalem bus on January 29, 2004. |
