#1 Logically, Eritrea should have joined AlQaeda in the decade after its founding. However, the Sudanese military's Islamist leaders did not trust Eritrea's President Isaias Afewerki. In 1992 a Sudanese was captured during an attempt to assassinate Afewerki. The prisoner was found to have begun specialized Sudan Security Service intelligence training in August 1991 at the Ideraba camp west of Omdurman,Sudan. The frosting on the cake and the twain was ne'er met when it was learned that Usama al-Turabi, son of Sudan's Islamist factotum Hassan al-Turabi was in his class. (See UN Security Council S/1997/517, 7 July 1997, p.13.)
