Raleigh, N.C. (AP) -- Prison workers soon might force feed a former university professor who has been on a hunger strike for six weeks to protest his imprisonment for refusing to testify about Palestinian charities, his lawyer said Wednesday.
Sami al-Arian, a Palestinian who taught computer science at the University of South Florida, stopped eating Jan. 22 in objection to a judge's decision to hold him indefinitely because he refused to testify before a grand jury.
He has lost more than 40 pounds on his water-only diet and is so weak that he needs a wheelchair, said his wife, Nahla al-Arian.
"His health is really deteriorating," she said. "We are really worried that there will be permanent damage."
Officials at the Federal Medical Center in Butner have told al-Arian they will begin force feeding if his condition worsens, said his lawyer, Peter Erlinder.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons has a hunger strike protocol that requires the medical staff to record the inmate's weight and vital signs once each day, according to the bureau's Web site.
If the staff determines that involuntary feeding is necessary, the protocol recommends feeding the person with tubes through the nose.
"It's an invasive procedure, and there's some danger of injury," Erlinder said. "We're hopeful that that there can be resolution before that."

Please, don't force feed him. That would be barbaric and inhumane.
Just let the m*****f***** starve to freaking death.
Why deny the prof from experiencing the eurphoria of starvation?
Ignore the ba$tard and let him starve in peace. As he is doing his final fadeout, bring in the pigs skin that is to be his burial shroud.
"Let the son of a b**** starve to death."
MEGA DITTOS!
I know what I'd like to feed this terrorist enabler, and from which direction.
OBTW, if you ever see pix of this Al-Arian goblin, physically he's a harmless looking little creep who is seeking the dork's revenge. Tell him to strap on a bomb belt and he'd cry.
eat something and DIE is the Sunday Morn way of putting it.
