Syria rejects Guantanamo spy link
Syria has angrily rejected American allegations linking it to a US serviceman accused of spying at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba.
"Lies, all lies."
Senior Airman Ahmad al-Halabi, 24, who is of Syrian origin, worked as a translator at the US base, where hundreds of suspected members of Al-Qaeda and the Taleban are being held without charge. He faces 32 charges, including helping the enemy, and is accused of contacting Syrian diplomats. The Syrian information minister Ahmad al-Hassan called the allegations baseless and illogical, and said it was incredible that a translator in such a position would not have undergone intelligence screening.
Humm, I’d have to agree with the last part.
"How could Syria have spies in Guantanamo? Is the CIA incapable of finding a trustworthy translator?" news agency AFP quoted him as saying.
Apparently
Depends on how long they were on to him. Sounds like they were tracking him long enough to get the goods, not long enough for him to spill to his handlers. And because they snagged two in the space of a day or two, I'd say they were probably tracking them pretty closely.
