AUGUST 4--An Osama bin Laden disciple serving life in the United States's only "supermax" federal prison believes that jailers are putting his health in jeopardy by X-raying all his food trays and commissary items in search of contraband items. Convicted terrorist Mohamed Al-Owhali alleges that the Bureau of Prisons security measure unreasonably increases his "daily exposure to potentially carcinogenic radiation," which the al-Qaeda operative claims violates Eighth Amendment prohibitions against cruel and unusual punishment. The 31-year-old Al-Owhali, who is being held at the "supermax" lockup in Florence, Colorado, was convicted of conspiring to bomb a U.S. embassy in Africa, an attack which resulted in more than 200 deaths. As TSG reported last year, Al-Owhali is not pleased with the severe restrictions at Florence, where he is housed in the Special Security Unit, home to a virtual Terrorists Row of inmates. He filed a pro se lawsuit alleging a laundry list of rights violations, including the denial of his beloved Walkman and certain English and Arabic publications. Al-Owhali began complaining about the "health consequences" of his irradiated grub earlier this year, and filed the below handwritten administrative appeal with BoP officials. His request that the X-raying be stopped was rejected by prison brass.

heheh...there’s a thought...:)

Eat up! Enjoy!
Oh, man, and you were so close.
The man is lucky I am not in the president's position.
Detain the congress and treat the al Qaeda guests to Bio 101 Galvanic Frogs Do Riverdance.
heheh...that's nearly good enough for a new tagline...:)
This worm isn't breaking any rocks. He's in "supermax", which means he spends 23 hours a day in his cell, in solitary. He isn't doing anything at all...
