Hiram goes to Afghanistan
  • New York Times carries a piece on Hiram Torres, alias Mohammed Salman, who apparently trained with Harkat ul Mujaheddin in Pakland before moving to Afghanistan with al-Qaeda. Young Hiram was part of a set that was disgusted with American culture - crass, materialistic, etc. - and he had dreams of traveling the world as a revolutionary.
    Unlike Johnny Jihad/John Walker Lindh, Hiram hasn't been heard from recently. His Mom hasn't heard from him since 1998, so he may have had his pointly little head blown off before the Americans even showed up.
