Hunger strike leaves terror suspect in poor health

Uh huh.

One of three terror suspects detained by Canadian immigration officials for nearly five years has developed breathing problems during a hunger strike to protest his living conditions, his supporters said Thursday.

Mahmoud Jaballah, one of the detainees being held on a national security certificate in Kingston, is in poor health, said his 19-year-old son, Ahmad Jaballah, who spoke with his father by phone Thursday morning.

"This morning they put him under the emergency unit," he said. "He had trouble breathing for about two hours. His health is just deteriorating."

Are we supposed to be upset by this? Let him starve himself to death - it will save us a trial. Does a Muslim still achive martyrdom for being a moron?

They're demanding proper access to a canteen, better protocol for visits, better food, unrestricted access to phones, and access to outdoor recreation facilities.

Ahmad Jaballah said his father and the other detainees intend to continue their hunger strike until their demands are met.

Newsflash Mahmoud: You are the prisoner. You do not get to make the rules or issue the demands. Canadian prisons spoil their inmates, so you can hardly get away with convincing us that you are hard done by. And why should a terror suspect have unfettered access to a telephone? That would be insanity.

What's the next demand? A plane ticket and four pounds of C-4? Let him starve.
