Cleric linked to 9-11 plotter sentenced

? A radical Muslim cleric linked to 9-11 plotter Zacarias Moussaoui was sentenced to seven years in prison Tuesday for inciting followers to kill non-Muslims.

Abu Hamza al-Masri also faces terrorism charges in the United States, and a Justice Department spokesman said the U.S. “stands ready to resume extradition proceedings” when the British case is completed.

In Tuesday’s sentencing, Judge Anthony Hughes told al-Masri that his sermons at the Finsbury Park mosque, attended by Moussaoui and shoe-bomber Richard Reid, had endangered people around the world.

Moussaoui pleaded guilty last year to plotting with al-Qaida to fly planes into U.S. buildings and faces trial in the U.S. on terrorism conspiracy charges. Reid was convicted of attempting to blow up an American Airlines flight in 2001 with a shoe bomb.
