Iraqi Man Pleads Guilty in KY Terrorism Case

By AP

BOWLING GREEN, KY - An Iraqi man has pleaded guilty to 10 charges of conspiring to send weapons, money and explosives to al-Qaida in Iraq.

Mohanad Shareef Hammadi on Tuesday also pleaded guilty to two counts of lying to the federal government about his association with a terrorist organization.

Hammadi will be sentenced Dec. 5 in Bowling Green, Ky., where he was arrested in May 2011 with a co-defendant. That man, Waad Ramadan Alwan, pleaded guilty earlier and will be sentenced Oct. 3.

  I love how the bleeding hearts always make the guilty terrorists out to be poor innocent victims of circumstance. Sure Judy, it’s the Americans fault he wanted to blow us up... Have you been to a shrink lately? It’s time. Please go! You need help.

  What should we expect. We have destroyed his country, slaughtered his people, made them buy Monsanto seed, and destroyed their way of life. What would you do if had been your country.

  I think the important question is whether this is going to affect Wildcat Basketball negatively.

  And why exactly did the US government let him come here in the first place? Culture matters, religion matters. Diversity kills. 9/11 should have taught us that. But the Feds love to import aliens who do not fit into our culture. Just look at the hordes of 3rd worlders infesting West Kentucky today.
