| Saudi bomb ’ringleader’ caught on video |
| 2003-05-15 |
| This being the Guardian, I'm surprised the headline isn't 'Bomb' 'ringleader' 'caught' on 'video'. Khaled al-Jehani, named by Saudi officials as leader of the cell that carried out the Riyadh bombings, appears with his Kalashnikov in a video recovered from a compound in Afghanistan belonging to Mohammad Atef, an aide to Osama bin Laden, and made public at the beginning of last year. Jehani is believed to have been made al-Qaida's chief of "Hey Ramzi!" "Yeah Khaled?" "Wot say we chop off someone's head?" "Who you have in mind?" "Well there's this kids who saw me boffing his little sister; he oughta go." "Sure, no probs, but I need more of a challenge." "Well then, let's go bomb something." "Yeah, bombs, great idea! Just remember, the red wire ..." "Yeah, yeah, I know, I know!" He said the public's assistance was requested for "further identifying and locating the individuals on the tapes so that additional investigation can be made". "Ramzi, who's that with you?" "This is cousin Achmed, and cousin Mahmoud." "Great! Say boys, feel like bombing something?" After the videos appeared, Jehani's father, Mohammad, was quoted as telling Kuwait's Al-Watan newspaper that his family believed he was dead. They had "received several anonymous calls from people who described themselves only as 'Khaled's brothers in Islam', offering condolences". Express all you want. He's still dead, and he's not in Paradise. |
