[SIZE="5"]JDL Member Imprisoned in Bomb Plot Killed[/SIZE]
[B]By ALEX VEIGA, Associated Press Writer 8 minutes ago[/B]
LOS ANGELES - A Jewish Defense League activist imprisoned for his role in a plot to bomb a California mosque and the office of a Lebanese-American congressman was killed at a federal prison in Phoenix, an FBI spokesman said Saturday.
[B]Earl Krugel, 62, was killed in an assault Friday evening at the Federal Correctional Institution, said FBI agent Richard Murray.[/B]
Murray wouldn't release further details but said federal authorities had opened a homicide investigation.
Krugel's wife, Lola, said FBI investigators told her an inmate had struck her husband on the head from behind with a cement block.
"Earl never saw it happening," she said. "He was exercising."
He had been at the medium-security prison for three days, according to his sister Linda Krugel, also of Los Angeles.
[B]Earl Krugel, a former dental assistant from Los Angeles, and late JDL leader Irv Rubin were arrested in 2001 and charged with conspiring to bomb the King Fahd Mosque in Culver City and a field office of Republican Rep. Darrell E. Issa, who is Lebanese-American.[/B]
Krugel pleaded guilty in 2003 to one count of conspiracy to violate the civil rights of worshippers at the mosque and one count of carrying an explosive device in connection with a conspiracy to impede or injure an office of the United States.
Despite the plea, he was sentenced in September to 20 years in prison. The reasons for the collapse of an initial plea agreement were sealed, despite a lawsuit by news organizations, including The Associated Press, to make the details public.
During the case, Krugel's lawyers said prosecutors were angered that his client withheld for several months the names of four people allegedly connected to the 1985 murder case of Alex Odeh, a regional director of the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. Several former JDL members were suspected in the case, but no one was ever charged.
"Earl did not deserve what he got," Krugel's wife said Saturday. "It was all political. It was all about Alex Odeh and my husband did not know anything about Alex Odeh. I'm devastated and I'm shocked that the system allowed this to happen."
She said she last spoke with her husband Thursday and he was still adjusting to prison life.
"He was supposed to call me on Friday morning," she said. "When I didn't hear from him, I felt something was not right."
The Jewish Defense League was founded in 1968 by Rabbi Meir Kahane. Kahane advocated the forcible removal of Arabs from Israel. He was assassinated in 1990 in New York. [B] JDL spokesman Brett Stone said he was stunned by Krugel's death. He noted it came exactly three years after authorities say Rubin slashed his neck with a prison-issued razor blade and jumped 18 feet over a railing at a federal detention center in Los Angeles. Rubin died nine days later.[/B]
"I'm really sad," said Stone, who believes Rubin's death was not a suicide. "It's shocking that's the second member of the Jewish Defense League in three years who has died in federal prison."

Back in 2001, when Rubin and Krugel were arrested, Michael A. Hoffman theorized that they were just the sort of "[B]low-level stooges[/B]" that Cryptocracy could use as an expendable cannon fodder to show the public that "establishment is not showing favoritism to Jews."

Wouldn't you love to see that agreement?

Shocked, I tell you. Probably 'shut up' is more likely.

What happened to Krugel is what the establishment wanted to happen to Duke.

I wonder how long before someone starts hollering about the Aryan Brotherhood being involved?

This guy was a terrorist in the truest sense of the word, not the political meaning of it. [QUOTE]"Earl did not deserve what he got," Krugel's wife said Saturday. "It was all political.

Or the slims. Being a jew of a nationalist sort is a bad thing to be in prison.

[quote=Sertorius] Too bad, people get killed in prison all the time. True, Sert, but those folks are just goyim. Remember what Abe Foxman wrote in the ADL bulletin --
[FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]"The Holocaust is something different. It is a singular event. It is not simply one example of genocide but a near successful [B]attempt on the life of God's chosen children and thus, on God Himself[/B]. It is an event that is the antithesis of Creation as recorded in the Bible; and like its direct opposite, which is relived weekly with the Sabbath and yearly with Torah, it must be remembered from generation to generation."[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2] So, this precious Jew's murder was no less than attempted deicide, and that's pretty serious.

[quote=Sertorius]Too bad, people get killed in prison all the time. There are claims that prison murder is rare. In fact, evidence suggests that many prison murders are dressed up as 'suicides' and such to lower the official total. Reminds me of the supposed 'drop in crime' the past few years. It's a drop in [I]official statistics[/I], which is not the same thing.

Q,
I've never seen that quote of Foxman's before. The arrogance of it is breathtaking. It reminds me of that crap Prager wrote about being the "chosen people" posted in the Christianity folder here.

Ironically, the only time Prager's quote has rung true was when his brethren murdered Jesus Christ.
