Palestinian Gets 16 Life Sentences for Driving Sbarro Bomber
(Jerusalem Post) - A military tribunal sentenced Jordanian-born Ahlam Tamimi, 23, a female Hamas activist, to 16 consecutive life sentences for driving the Palestinian suicide bomber who blew up the Sbarro restaurant in Jerusalem on August 9, 2001, killing 15 people and injuring over a hundred others. The judges said Tamimi initiated and planned several parts of the attack. "This is a woman who was fully aware of what she was doing and acted with the goal of spilling Israeli blood."
