Three men in the UK, originally arrested on terrorism charges in October of 2005, were sentenced Thursday for a total of 24 years in prison after they admitted to using the Internet to incite murder. Younes Tsouli, Waseem Mughal and Tariq Al-Daour initially denied the terrorism charges. “The trial started over two months ago, and after the prosecution presented detailed evidence to the jury, the defendants changed their plea to guilty earlier this week,” said Colin Gibbs, a lawyer in the British Crown Prosecution Service Counter Terrorism Division.
