I reported on this case at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/?p=8431\">rightwinggranny<\/a> on Wednesday. There were no question as to whether the women had given money to support terrorism, the only question was what the court was going to do about it. The court, thank goodness, decided to send them to jail. The jury deliberated for about 20 hours.<\/p>\n<p>The article reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>The ringleader was not exactly remorseful after the verdicts were returned. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.syracuse.com\/newsflash\/index.ssf\/story\/jury-convicts-2-us-women-in-terror\/f0d8a3884bc245b9a645549352e80862\">According to the AP<\/a>, she stood before the judge and stated through an interpreter: \u201cI am very happy.\u201d She added that she knew she was going to heaven \u2014 but first she\u2019ll be stopping off in prison. She condemned people in authority who accused her of wrongdoing (and anyone \u201cwho is against Muslims\u201d), saying: \u201cYou will go to hell.\u201d I\u2019m pretty sure that includes Judge Davis, but count me in as well.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The local Muslim community showed up at the courthouse to support the women on trial. Again, there was never any doubt about the guilt of the defendants, the support was there simply because the women were Muslims acting in accordance with Muslim law.
