this is how you fight terrorism

WITH THE LAW. from the new york times:

a jury in Britain convicted the country's best-known radical cleric on charges of incitement and promoting racial hatred. Abu Hamza al-Masri was not accused of being connected to specific acts of violence. Rather, as the judge put it, he's getting seven years hard time for having "created an atmosphere" in which murder was taken to be "not only a legitimate course but a moral and religious duty in pursuit of perceived justice." Al-Qaida men Richard Reid and Zacarias Moussaoui both hung out at Masri's mosque.
