A jury in SE London has just found 3 harmless lunatics guilty of a fantastical plot to stage another 9/11. The idea was to somehow or other insert explosives in Coke cans and blow holes in airplane fuselages.
Never mind that the 9/11 plot was a) hijackings (not blowing up planes) and b) crashing 3 planes into large buildings. Never mind that aircraft (which cost a lot) are able to sustain small holes in the fuselage without exploding. Never mind that the plot-obsessed New Scotland Yard has not proven that this amateur-sounding ideas actually works. One of their pieces of "evidence" was that someone was seen looking at some airline timetables. Yea, to help them fantasize about carrying out their hopeless "plot".
The 3 Moslems found guilty after a 2d trial were clearly fantasists. So far there has been no serious attempt to "bring the West to its knees" or any such overheated nonsense.

What was their sentence?
You seem upset that these people have been found guilty, because they were just harmless lunatics, is that correct?
If they are under 25 you could just exonerate them by labelling their plans a 'boyish prank'. 'Prank' is a great newspeak word for smaller scale acts of terror and hate crimes (but it should only be used if the victims are white of course).
