He pleaded guilty in July to trying to provide material support and resources to a terrorist organization. He declined to make a statement in court Tuesday and showed little emotion as U.S. District Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman announced the sentence, according to CTV. Investigators also found copies of extremist literature on Masri's computer, including Osama bin Ladin's 1996 manifesto, The Declaration of War Against the Americans.
