A BRITISH al-Qaeda suspect told a judge who ordered his extradition to the United States on terror charges yesterday that he fears he will be sent to Guantanamo Bay and tortured.
Lawyers for Haroon Rashid Aswat, who was brought up in Yorkshire, said that they would appeal against the ruling, which could delay any decision on his removal for many months.
The FBI claims that the former street-market trader tried to set up a terrorist training camp in the backwoods of Oregon for US and British recruits before the attacks on September 11, 2001.

Oh yes, he can murder but fears pain.
Coward!
I hope they let him hang in the desert sun by his ankles, let him catch insects for food.
Forget about water.
He would kill everyone of us in a heartbeat and plan to go frolic with his 72 maidens.

Not likely, my take is that this cat is most likely pulling a brayer rabbit act.

Let's put panties on his head as a down payment.
Full Disclosure: I've posted it before--
If he cooperates, he gets Gwyneth Paltrow's or Heidi Klum's panties.
If he doesn't, it's.....JANET RENO.
Cheers!

SEATTLE CELL BTTT
* Ultimate Jihad Challenge : The man [Semi Osman] also allegedly helped set up a Web site for a British company, Sakina Security Services, that courted clients for what it called the Ultimate Jihad Challenge. That company has been charged by the British government with seeking to "assist or prepare for" terrorism, and its trial is under way in London. U.S. investigators are probing for links between Sakina and the aborted plan for a jihad camp in Oregon. - http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/715683/posts

* North London Central Mosque in Finsbury Park, London : Members of the purported Seattle cell have pledged allegiance to Abu Hamza, relatives say, and several have made pilgrimages to the North London Central Mosque in Finsbury Park, thought to be at the vortex of militant Islamic recruiting in Europe. In recent years, the mosque has been attended by Zacarias Moussaoui, the only man charged in connection with the Sept. 11 attacks, and Richard Reid, the man accused of trying to blow up an American Airlines jetliner with explosives in his shoes. ------ http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/715683/posts

The same could not be said for Oussama Kassir, a Lebanese who is a Swedish citizen, and Haroon Aswat, an Asian Indian from Britain, who arrived in early December. The men, hardened trainers for the jihad, had been traveling from Afghanistan, expecting to find many American recruits to train as terrorists. "As I got to know them, I took them more seriously," the Muslim said. Both said they were bodyguards for Abu Hamza, whom they sometimes called on the telephone. They were furious when they found that conditions in Bly were much different than they had been led to believe. James Ujaama had sent faxes to Abu Hamza, describing the ranch as an ideal place to train for jihad. The men instead found the Osmans living in a dilapidated trailer. "It was the nicest one there, and we were stepping through the floor all winter; the other trailers were even worse," the Muslim said. ----------------- Ranch's efforts at terror training detailed- Muslim who lived at Oregon site tells , by CHRIS McGANN, DAIKHA DRIDI AND SAM SKOLNIK, August 9, 2002 , Seattle Post Intelligencer

Absolutely makes me sick.
