His fate is pretty horrible in some ways. He will be in a soundproof cell, by himself, for 23 hours a day. That kind of isolation is hard to bear mentally.
I'm sure you're right. American prisons are pretty nice living in some ways. In many cases you are at the mercy of other prisoners, which can be bad, but I imagine that's true in India and other places too. Moussaoui is going to one of our newer maximum security facilities. He will be in solitary confinement 23 hours a day, but will probably have TV with limited programming. He won't be able to see or hear the other prisoners at all. That much isolation is hard on most people. But, yes, I think he deserves worse.
