| 2002-09-22 |
| Pakistani security forces arrested 10 Arab men as they tried to sneak across the border from neighboring Afghanistan in the past week, officials said Sunday. Well, that leaves 990... The men, traveling with fake passports, were ordered held in northwestern Pakistan. Officials suspected they may be part of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network. The fake passports are the way you can tell they're Arabs... "The suspects are being questioned by the Pakistani authorities," a police official with knowledge of the case told The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity. "None of them have been handed over to FBI agents for questioning yet." He did not say what evidence authorities have that the men are part of bin Laden's terror group. Ummm... Lemme see, here. Sneaking across the border from Afghanistan in the dead of night, check... carrying Ak47s, rocket launchers and antitank guns, check... false documents, check... Yep. Prob'ly just an innocent party of elk hunters. Might as well let 'em go... |
