Brits Get "Significant" A Terrorist For Us (Again) In Iraq

Omar al-Farouq, a terrorist alleged to be a lieutenant of Bin Laden's in South East Asia, was killed today by British forces in Basra. (BBC report, title bar.)

"In what the BBC's Jim Muir describes as a considerable embarrassment for the US, Farouq and three others escaped from the US military prison at Bagram airbase in Kabul last year.

"He even appeared in a video on an Arab TV station to boast about it."
