Khobar-Qaeda Link In Gitmo Papers
An interesting nugget from the Gitmo papers -- an al Qaeda-linked detainee was identified by Kuwait and Saudi authorities as
a suspect in the Khobar bombings. The really disturbing thing in this story is that the detainee was living in the United States when September 11 happened and managed to leave the country unhindered three weeks later. Considering the massive number of Muslim-Americans detained after 9/11, it's very troubling that someone with a considerable al Qaeda history -- and whose identity was known to two of our supposed allies in the Middle East -- was able to depart the country while hundreds of innocent people were being held without charge or due process.
