Germany Paroles Convicted Terrorist/Murderer

Today, Germany announced they have set free Mohammed Ali Hamadi, the terrorist convicted of murdering U.S. Navy diver Robert Stethem during the hijacking of TWA Flight 847 in June of 1985.  Hamadi was sentenced to life in prison, but has now been released to Lebanon, a country with which we have no extradition treaty.

Pictured is Captain John Testrake, leaning out the cockpit window, held at gunpoint by one of the terrorists.  A month after 9/11, three of Hamadi's alleged accomplices, Imad Fayez Mugniyah, Ali Atwa, and Hasan Izz-Al-Din, were all placed on the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist list, where they remain today with $5 million offered for each.

Nice work, Germany.

Lebanon, little help?
