The Pantybomber Wants Out
It's pretty simple, pussycat. You try to blow up a plane for Allah, we're going to cage your ass. Tresa Baldas writes in the Freep:
The so-called underwear bombing suspect, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, charged with trying to blow up a Detroit-bound airliner on Christmas 2009, has a new request: Let me out of here.In a court filing Thursday, Abdulmutallab asked a federal judge to release him from prison, claiming he's being "unjustly detained" by the American government.
"(A)ll Muslims should only be ruled by the law of the Quran," Abdulmutallab wrote.
In a separate, handwritten court filing, the Nigerian national also wrote that "excessive force" was used to restrain him Wednesday after he assaulted several officers from his cell "in defense of Muhammad."
On the bright side, you aren't in prison in a Muslim country! Saudi Arabia, for example:
Torture, beatings, and other abuses of prisoners are committed regularly by both the Mutawwa'in and officials in the Ministry of Interior. Additionally, at least one person was killed recently by the Mutawwa'in for a very minor religious violation. Other executions during the year 2000 were for crimes ranging from "deviant sexual behavior" to sorcery, and were carried out by stoning, beheading, or firing squad; additionally, some prisoners were punished by amputations or the loss of an eye. Prisoners are sometimes held for long periods of time without charge or trial.
I can't believe a court is going to waste its time with this shit. Judges really need to hit people who do this with sanctions. Unfortunately, as long as the petitioners on the other side of the bench are their fellow lawyers, that'll never happen.

He is a guest in our country and we should accomodate his request. You get some shovels, I'll get a bunch of rocks, I'm pretty sure Amy has a whip laying around somewhere...

Then don't come to our country and try to blow us up!

I'm willing to donate my ant farm. ;-)
Besides -- I'm sure there was at least one other Muslim on the plane. Doesn't Sharia law call for the death of the perpetrator of murder or attempted murder of another Muslim?

A: You came here
B: While here you're subject to our laws, like it or not.
C: You tried to commit mass-murder
D: Screw you, you miserable little canker on the ass of mankind, you're in prison and you're staying there. And I hope they sneak bacon into your food.
Until we decide that 'Muslim terrorists should be punished according to the sharia laws they like; bring out the rocks!'

God - I think everybody at this point is thinking what a whiner or a pussy. I wonder if he blubbered like the fat "fish" in Shawshank Redemption. What is the saying - do not do the crime if you can't do the time.
But I am willing to compromise - if he is willing to die in a explosion for his faith - let's give him a second chance - give his panties back and nice chair with some straps.
