One More

Okay, just one more. An Indonesian cleric is on trial for inciting the Bali bombings.

A radical Indonesian cleric accused of inciting the Bali bombings and other attacks should be jailed for eight years, prosecutors have urged a court.

The prosecution team could have demanded that Muslim cleric Abu Bakar Ba'asyir be executed if found guilty.

Ba'asyir denies leading the Jemaah Islamiah group, which is thought to be linked to al-Qaeda.

He also denies any involvement in bomb attacks on Bali nightclubs in 2002 and the Marriott Hotel in Jakarta in 2003.

The Bali attacks killed 202 people, while 12 died - including a suicide bomber - when the Marriot was attacked.

Eight years is too light if you ask me. The solution... (Link)?
