A federal judge on Friday gave the government 30 days to start allowing American Taliban fighter John Walker Lindh and other Muslim inmates to hold group prayers outside their cells in a high-security prison in Indiana.

In a seven-page order, Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson said the Bureau of Prisons might have misconstrued her ruling seven months ago that granted Lindh’s request to hold group prayers in the Terre Haute federal prison’s Communications Management Unit, so she made her intent clear.

“The warden is to allow group prayer during every Muslim prayer time for which the inmates are not confined to their cells,” she wrote in bold print.

And if they refuse, how will she enforce it?

Damn shame us taxpayers are paying for anti-American idiots like her.

I did a google image search on her and I believe she should be required to wear a hijab.

“The warden is to allow group prayer during every Muslim prayer time for which the inmates are not confined to their cells,”

If I were the warden, they would be confined to their cells during all prayer times. They could have their exercise times between 1 - 6 am, one at a time.

If I were the warden I would tell the judge she has an opinion. If she thinks she has authority over the prison system she should make clear where how that authority is and if she claims to have it without law then tell her to enforce it by spreading her robe.

Jeez, how embarrassing! I was referring to the Left’s penchant for the dual last name, not Olog’s handle..!
