A Berlin court on Wednesday sentenced the wife of the leader of a German terrorist cell to two and a half years in prison for supporting terrorist organizations.

The German-Turkish woman was found guilty of collecting up to 2,900 euros ($4,000) for terrorist groups such as the Islamic Jihad Union, the German Taliban Mujahedeen and al Qaeda between November 2009 and February 2010.

She was also convicted of publishing propaganda texts on the Internet that solicited members for terrorist groups, charges which she admitted to but distanced herself from in the trial.

"It seems to me that it was a different person who wrote the texts," she said, adding that she despised war and violence and had not realized her own radicalization.

Interesting quote, "had not realized her own radicalization".

I wonder if this is somehow related to the shootings of the USAF security team members at the airport in Frankfurt.
