#1 In Jordan police arrested al-Zarqawi's spiritual mentor Tuesday as he was being interviewed on Al-Jazeera television, his first public appearance since his release from prison last week.

#2 Al-Maqdisi has been in and out of prison for years. He is one of the small number of Palestinian-Jordanian and Saudi Clerics who have provided the religous legitimacy to the new generation of Islamist terrorists - Zarqawi's Al-Qaeda in Iraq and (whoever the latest leader is)'s Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.
