Why should society cater for something that isn't tolerated in the first place? It is no use to us to know he's miserable in jail. It doesn't bring back the hundreds. Having the terrorist gone is a bonus, one less to worry about.

People ask why should he be given the easy road out via death. Why not? Why make him suffer when he has already salvaged far more then we can from knowing he's miserable. I'd call it two birds with one stone to see a murderer of such proportions gone.
