Death penalty for what exactly? Lying about something he had no real knowledge of in the first place? Adding a tiny shred of of information to the rather large pile of information the FBI already had and failed to do anything with?
Moussaoui was, and is, an outsider in the world of Islamic terrorism. He's a poser, a hanger on who desperately wishes he mattered more than he does. I wanted him to get life in prison not just because of the "he'd be come a martyr" thing, but because I truly believe he didn't do anything worthy of the death penalty (even if I were to theoretically support the death penalty at all, which I don't).
