This 1st gem from Mark Steyn ecapsulates the terrible turn our leaders may have taken in the war on terror when deciding to try this terrorist as one of us instead of the scum enemy of America that he is in front of a war tribunal and then a firing squad.
The second one , from the L.A. Times..(my eyes rolled too until I read it) that actually calls for Hollywood to get on the side of our warriors during this time of war instead of being propagandists for the enemy.

Moussaoui gets life, the terrorists win: "America, you lose,' said Zacarias Moussaoui as he was led away from the court last week. Hard to disagree. Not just because he'll be living a long life at taxpayers' expense. He'd have had a good stretch of that even if he'd been 'sentenced to death,' which in America means you now spend more years sitting on Death Row exhausting your appeals than the average 'life' sentence in Europe. America 'lost' for a more basic reason: turning a war into a court case and upgrading the enemy to a defendant ensures you pretty much lose however it turns out. And the notion, peddled by some sappy member of the ghastly 9/11 Commission on one of the cable yakfests last week, that jihadists around the world are marveling at the fairness of the U.S. justice system, is preposterous. The leisurely legal process Moussaoui enjoyed lasted longer than America's participation in the Second World War. Around the world, everybody's enjoying a grand old laugh at the U.S. justice system." moreDraft Hollywood - Los Angeles Times: "THERE HAS NEVER been an age without war, not ever. Mass violence is a continual aspect of the human condition. Peace, like good weather, is always local and temporary — and what is peace anyway but the result of past victories in war and the effective threat of future war against would-be aggressors?
We play with our children, read books, go to work and enjoy recreations only because people with guns stand ready, willing and able to kill other people with guns who would kill us if they could." more
