Zacarias Moussaoui can laugh now, but he won't laugh long...

"America, you lost. I won," Moussaoui said, clapping his hands as he was led out of the courtroom after the verdict was read."

[WinteryDays]

I wonder if Moussaoui will figure out who really won this case when he finds himself staring into the faces of the general population of a US federal prison.

To bad no one told him that he would live longer in this country by being on death row.

[MarkeyD]

That's what I have been thinking. I hope he does go into the general population.

[RushCrush]

Welcome to FR

I doubt he will be staring at any population whatsoever- folks at this type of prison barely have any human contact.

Though I have been heartened to learn via Wikipedia that there have been some a-holes who were murdered there by fellow inmates.

Half the people in our prisons are being converted to muslims. He may find a huge welcoming party!

Now, I'm sure he will be thinking a lot about the 74 virgins he was promised by OBL!??!

[oolatec]

He will be in Supermax. He won't be face to face with anyone but the guards.

[Smartass]

I just heard he's going to be away by himself. Isolated!

[sourcery]

Alive, Moussaoui serves as a pretext for "hostages" to be taken, with the threat to kill them unless Moussaoui is released. I expect this to happen repeatedly from now on, with most of those taken suffering the ultimate penalty that Moussaoui should have paid.

For this reason only, Moussaoui is right that "we lost."

[Swiss]

They seemed to execute Tim McVey fairly quickly.

Nothing is going to happen to this creep in prison. The feds are too scared that his friends will blow people up in revenge or that the Islamic Rights groups would sue if the little Terrorist got killed.

[ncountylee]

Get ready for an endless stream of claims that his "Muslim rights" are being violated.

[potlatch]

Oh that's great, now we'll protect him! What a hoot!

From Wikipedia:

In Supermax prisons, prisoners are often allowed out of their cells for only an hour a day; often they are kept in solitary confinement. They receive their meals through "food ports" in the doors of their cells. Often they are given nothing to do, no work or assigned activities, except in many Supermax prisons, including the Federal Supermax in Florence, Colorado, the prisoners are allowed to have a television. When Supermax inmates are allowed access to an exercise area, often this is just a small cage, not much different from their cells, in which they are taken to "exercise" alone. Prisoners are under constant surveillance, usually with video cameras. Cell doors are often automated and often opaque, designed to prevent prisoners from seeing outside their cells. Conditions are extremely spartan, with poured concrete furniture the norm. Cell walls, and sometimes plumbing as well, are often soundproofed to prevent communication between the inmates.

"He won't be face to face with anyone but the guards."

Can I be a guard? Just for a few seconds, that's all I ask...

[skimask]

From what I've heard, the prison in Colorado hes going to has 23 hours a day of solitary confinement and 1 hour a day of exercise alone. He will not be allowed to interact with anyone but the guards. No TV, no radio. He will be allowed to shower twice a week. The religious services he attends are piped into his cell via closed circuit TV. Basically hes going to spend the rest of his life alone.

[Namyak]

Exactly... "prisoner release" is a common pretense for hostage taking in the muslim world... A truly American guard would let him frolic with the general population for "only an hour", as even the general prison population has sufficient disgust for child molesters and people who knowingly execute 3,000 Americans...

[Choose Ye This Day]

I volunteer to be one of his guards.

[Choose Ye This Day]

Me first! Me first!

[sandpit]

I was hoping he would get a few lessons in prison shower etiquette!

[BnBlFlag]

He'll be staying in a very small cell 23 hours a day with one hour of exercise allowed daily and will have almost no human contact.
To me, it's a fate worse than death. Tell it to the wussified jurors though.
It's the same system used on the Texas Death Row.

[eclectic]

Absolutely. If he were Jewish however, they would have finished him off quickly.
