Sentenced to Death

Posted by Charles Mudede on Thu, May 21, 2009 at 9:45 AM

And this...

A real estate mogul with ties to Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak's son was sentenced to death Thursday for ordering the killing of a Lebanese pop star who had been his lover.

Hisham Talaat Moustafa, a member of the ruling National Democratic Party, was accused of paying a former Egyptian State Security officer $2 million to kill Suzanne Tamim in Dubai. The green-eyed diva, who was 30 at the time of her death last July, rose to stardom in the late 1990s drawing huge audiences with her sultry dancing and cascading chestnut hair.

...this is real? This is not something that happened in a novel by Salman Rushdie? Unbelievable.

I read Slog on Bloglines and when I first saw this post I was all like: "What, sentenced to death by Charles Mudede? Who?"

That looks like the cast photo for a Turkish knock-off of the Sopranos.
