[Poohbah]

Interesting. Idema has gone by "Keith Idema" and "Jack Idema" at different times. As Keith Idema, he claimed that the movie "The Peacemaker" (George Clooney/Nicole Kidman) was based on his true story (it was based on the book "One Point Safe" by the Cockburns) and threatened to sue DreamWorks. Now, as Jack Idema, he's breaking Afghani law...

Hmm. Something's not right here. Perhaps he has a case of Stolen Valor.

[Criminal Number 18F]

His full name (as the Bureau of Prisons will cheerfully confirm, not to mention enough legal filings to choke John Edwards) is Jonathan Keith Idema. He has always gone by "Keith" to friends (?) and family and the world at large. Starting with Afghanistan, he went all candle-stein with "Jack."

In Robin Moore's "Hunt for Bin Laden" he is referred to by about three variations on his name.

d.o.l.
