From this:
[Legal immigrant Sam] Malkandi has said that he was approached at Northgate Mall [in Seattle] by an Arabic-speaking stranger named Ahmed Bawarth soon after arriving in Western Washington. The two became friends, Malkandi said, and about a year after they met, Bawarth asked Malkandi to assist him in helping a friend from Yemen into the country. The friend, according to the government, was [Tawfiq] bin Attash, planner of the bombing of the Navy ship USS Cole in Yemen in 2000 and the bombings of the American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998.
They want to deport him for those reasons and he's admitted to lying to obtain his green card. But, he claims he's not an AQ operative. Darrick Smalley, U.S. Immigration and Customs enforcement senior special agent, disagrees:
"Somebody picked Sam Malkandi out of all the millions of people in the country to entrust with the safety of one of the highest-ranking al-Qaida operatives? They don't operate that way."

It is easy for you to sit there and call people idiots. This case is much more complicated than you realize. Perhaps you should report things you know about. Newspaper articles never have actually amounted to knowlege.

without going nut's the question is only how many operatives are living inside this non nation? most third world people that are here love bin laden.
the fact is if bin laden's ideals win the third worlds people think it will be a win for the black and yellow and brown races most have no ideal what bin laden really wants the death of anyone in his way.
and that means most people on earth.
but remember most people on earth have a IQ Of 55, so watch out for the coming years, its going to be fun to watch the evil hit the cities and nations that don't get it at all.
