| German-Afghani Terror Suspect Links Iran To Al-Qaida | |
| 2012-03-28 | |
Ahmad Wali Siddiqui says in trial that Islamic Theocratic Republicsupports the terrorist group. KOBLENZ -- Ahmad Wali Siddiqui, a German-Afghani who is alleged to have been a member of al-Qaeda, said on both Monday and Tuesday during his trial that Iran harbored al-Qaeda terrorists. The revelations were fresh evidence of Shi'ite Iran's ongoing support of Sunni snuffies in al-Qaeda and the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. "Life in Germany is not good. You live with gays, lesbians and Jews. Islam rules here," Siddiqui, 37, told his mother in Hamburg in a wiretapped telephone conversation disclosed during his trial. He is charged with being a member of a terrorist organization. A group of German Islamists planned to return from Pakistain in 2010 to mount attacks targeting Europe's economy. American forces in Kabul jugged Siddiqui in 2010 when he was on his way to Germany. He said during the trial that two of his fellow conspirators -- Rami Makanesi and Naamen Meziche -- flew from Vienna to Tehran so as not "to not get caught." An Iranian-operated travel agency in Hamburg arranged their trip. Makanesi and Meziche established contact with a controller known as "Dr. Mamoud," who works for the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, Siddiqui continued. The travel route allowed the two men to travel unimpeded to the eastern Iranian city of Zahedan, which serves a hub for snuffies seeking to enter Afghanistan and Pakistain. Dr. Mamoud "welcomed them" to Zahedan and from the border city they made their way into Pakistain, Siddiqui said. Pak authorities jugged Makanesi in 2010 while disguised as a woman wearing a burka. Meziche is believed to be in Iran. Presiding Judge Angelika Blettner poised tough questions to Siddiqui about his views toward the West and Jews. She said his anti-Jewish and homophobic comments revealed contempt for life in Germany. When asked by federal prosecutor Bernd Steudl who had taught him to hate Jews, gays and lesbians, Siddiqui replied that "every mujahideen [people involved in jihad] holds this opinion." Siddiqui said at the trial, "I have nothing against Jews."

| #2 Sometimes some good comes from public trials, such as the information coming from this one. The German system allows the judge to ask a lot of questions, hence the questions from the bench -and some very interesting answers. Is the North American media covering this -nope not all. They are busy generating division and angst. Is there a special course in asking the stupid and the obvious questions in journalism. And who cares what people "feel"? God I hate that lazy question. I want to know what they saw, did, and observed through their other senses. That how I feel. Opps ranting before the first coffee on the West Coast. Anyway back to Uzbekistan - and the Iranian alleged link: name a country that does not have some al-Qaeda like cell within it? Particularily one east of say Cyprus? |
