#1 Jeepers! I got one right. I called Jordan in a prior post.

This bunch of Bedu is on our side, for now.

#2 "The UAE's official WAM news agency said Nashiri -- whom it said led naval operations for the militant Islamic network -- had been arrested in late October for planning to "blow up a number of vital economic targets in the country." "He had planned operations aiming at the highest number of casualties among nationals and foreigners, but shifted to alternative plans when that failed," a senior UAE official told Reuters. WAM identified the suspect as Abdul-Rahman al-Nashiri, but a UAE official said he was the same person identified as Abd-al-Rahim al-Nashiri by the United States.
"He had several passports and identity cards in his possession," the official said. Yemen asked the United States last month to hand al-Nashiri over for his alleged role in the Cole bombing.
He was also wanted for questioning about other "terrorist" operations in Yemen, official media said."

After we get all the information out of him we can, and providing he will get a "fair trial" and beheading, I have no problem letting them have him.
