Israeli Businessman Sentenced in Plot to Ship Nuclear Detonation Devices

WASHINGTON (AP) - An Israeli businessman who conspired to ship controlled nuclear technology to Pakistan was sentenced to three years in federal prison.

U.S. District Judge Ricardo Urbina on Thursday imposed the sentence on Asher Karni, who pleaded guilty last year to helping ship devices that could be used to test, develop and detonate nuclear weapons.

and had he been an arab, everyone on the mainstream press would shout KILL THE TERRORIST. He would have probably either been sentenced to 30 years without parole, or executed. Since he was Israeli, he got 3 years. And most likely the Israeli government will plea to give him parole, and he will be free in 2 weeks or less.
