  • The suspected head of Osama bin Laden's European operations and three other Tunisians went on trial on charges of belonging to a terrorist group that crafted false passports and tried to obtain explosives. Prosecutors asked a Milan court to hand-down a six-year prison term for Essid Sami Ben Khemais, whom police believe was sent from Afghanistan to supervise bin Laden's terrorist operations in Europe, including a foiled attack on the U.S. Embassy in Rome. Lighter sentences were expected for the other three defendants whom lawyers said pleaded innocent to terrorism-related charges.
    There's probably another Head of European Operations by now. Jug time is one of those professional hazards, not nearly as romantic as achieving Paradise after 12 or 14 hours with a few bullets in the innards (which, keep in mind "hurts less than a mosquito bite") but moreso than not quite making it to Paradise and going through life so horribly maimed you scare children. (They don't really talk about that part of it much in Jihad School for some reason...)
