he gets the small TV, the anger mgmt shows, religious shows. he gets food and medical care.

the cell is 7x12 people are saying here - that's 84 square feet. a bare bones inside stateroom on many cruise ships is 117 square feet - and a part of that is taken up by the closet, which obviously Moussaoui does not need. So the idea that an 84 sq ft room in a "coffin" as these others are saying, is a stretch.

In a year he'll be beggin for a shot.

And even that's about 7 times too large.

Of course after pacing the floor for thirty plus years it is not going to be the same as a week on a cruise ship.
As for the other items. It doesn't make sense for him to be allowed to watch/hear people talking. What kind of solitary confinement is that. I assume he would be entitled to medical care. At any rate. At this point he had better be locked away. It should only have taken him a a few days to be transported or perhaps flown in. We had better not hear about any more stuff coming from his lawyers because the case is closed right? And if so, he no longer should have a lawyer. If some jerks are allowed to re-open this case there are going to be a lot of angry people, and not just republicans and conservatives.

anybody thinking this guy is gonna be in solitary and not be able to communicate with other prisoners is delusional.

you need to watch the Lockdown-Maximum Security shows on National Geographic.I watched them on Sunday night and what they showed was truly surprising.

guys doing hits from their cells with coded messages,drugs being sent in on cards soaked in meth,prisoners fishing notes out of toilets, etc....

this guy WILL be able to spread propaganda-shoulda been fried like an egg

When I heard the sentence, I literally marked out a 7X12 space in one of my classrooms and pointed it out to my students.

I am not the slightest bit suicidal or even claustrophic, but I gotta tell you I don't think I would make it a year without losing my mind.

On the other hand, I am quite willing to have him contemplate what it would be like to be trapped on the 97th floor with an inferno going on beneath you. I am willing to have him contemplate it with total concentration for a long, long, long time.
