Convicted terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui was sentenced to life in prison without parole for his role in the 9/11 attacks. Moussaoui acted defiantly throughout his trial, expressing no remorse, claiming he would commit terror again if given the chance, and stating that he "won" and America "lost." Many feel that even a life sentence is too lenient, considering the pure evil of his crimes. But Moussaoui's new home is far from a picnic, as he'll spend his life in total solitary confinement at the maximum security Supermax Prison.The reality is, America won and Moussaoui lost. Good riddance.
