HAHAHAHAHAH ! To funny .

U.S. court upholds Moussaoui conviction

A federal appeals court Monday upheld the conviction and life prison term of Zacarias Moussaoui, the only person convicted in the United States in connection with the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit in Richmond rejected an effort by Moussaoui's attorneys to send the case back to federal court in Alexandria, where he pleaded guilty in 2005 to an al-Qaeda conspiracy that led to the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

Attorneys for Moussaoui had told the court that he should be retried or resentenced because he was deprived of his constitutional rights. The Justice Department said the proceedings were fair.
