“On January 17, 1996, the presiding judge [at the ‘Day of Terror’ trial in New York] handed out life sentences to the ten defendants who hadn’t entered into plea agreements with the government. El-Sayyid Nosair was finally convicted in the murder of Meir Kahane, as well as other charges, and sentenced to life in prison. Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman received a sentence of life plus 65 years for his role in the conspiracy.”
