#1 Australia has them, all Lebanon has to do is ask:
AUSTRALIA would respond positively if Lebanon asked it to extradite two Sydney brothers sentenced to jail by a Beirut court for helping finance a terrorist bombing campaign, Prime Minister John Howard said today. Lebanon has yet to ask for the extradition of the brothers, who live in western Sydney. "My advice is there's been no extradition request received by Australia, but if there was one received we will naturally respond positively," Mr Howard told reporters in Sydney, ahead of a visit today to the Solomon Islands. Asked whether the brothers were of interest to Australia, Mr Howard replied: "I think you're all pretty safe in making that assumption."

#2 Bilal, who is a former Qantas baggage handler, sent $2,500 to Kaaki, the mastermind behind the bombings.

Well, this isn't very reassuring.
