Pentagon: Suspected Mastermind of USS Cole Bombing Confesses

The article I read is talking about a man named Waleed Mohammed Bin Atash who has been for a long time, suspected of plotting the bombing of the USS Cole. He finally confessed at the hearing that took place at Guantanamo Bay. In the hearing he includes many of his acts of retaliation against Americans. Like, he said that he bought a boat and some explosives to that he would later use on the USS Cole and just goes on with some other things he was also involved in. This one relates to terrorism and is important to that group because it's a real terrorist that's coming out of the closet and actually confessing what he did. I think that is what makes it important because I have never heard someone just confess things like that. I think that they should put this man in prison because of all the bad thing he did and he is not even ashamed to say what he's done. Terrorism is bad and should stop because they kill innocent people.
