From Times Wire Reports
An Israeli military court sentenced four Palestinians to 29 life terms in prison each for helping a suicide bomber who killed 29 people at a Passover dinner in March 2002.
The blast in the Park Hotel in the seaside resort of Netanya was the deadliest attack on Israelis since the start of a Palestinian uprising in fall 2000.
The court found the four men had provided Hamas militant Abdel-Basset Odeh with a hiding place and an explosives belt.
