Report: 'White Man' Training Al Qaida in Wilderness Camp Near Kenya

Al Qaida linked Islamic terrorists have set up training camp in southern Somalia, near the Kenyan border, according to eyewitness reports in the local press.

The camp is said to employ turban-wearing sentries armed with AK-47 rifles.

The Islamists at the camp are being trained with the help of a 'white man sporting a thick mustache' and believed to be of Eastern European extraction.

I would imagine that special ops is on the case and the "White Man" has either gone to ground or is taking a dirt nap. The latter would be just fine.

More from the subscriber section: 'An official in the Kenyan counterterrorist agency said the camp is supported by a Garissa, Keyna businessman and a series of lodges in the Majengo area of Mombossa. The 45 square mile camp in inhabited by the families of jihadis and includes local police and courts.'

"If our satellites know where they are what are we waiting for...."


May I?

IF OUR SATELLITES KNOW WHERE THEY ARE, WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR????????

Perhaps the strategy is to let them come into the US, register them as workers so we will "know where they are".....

training camp in southern Somalia

If they're not with us, they're against us.

Fuel the B-2s.

Sounds like a good practice mission for our seals or a little clandestine CIA "on the job" practice.

location details: 'the camp at Ras Kiamboni is being used to recurit and train Islamic extremists linked to the Al Ittiyad, a Somalia based group liked to Al Qaida. The terrorists were told that they would be sent to fight alongside Islamists in Chechnya. The fighters are part of the global Jihadi holy warrior movement that includes Al Qaida.'

I think Kenya is a traditional terrorist training ground, all over Northern Africa terrorists are training, and it's right next door to Somalia (black hawk down).

a 'white man sporting a thick mustache' and believed to be of Eastern European extraction

Maybe Chechen?

The local Kenyan media seems to think he's Yugoslavian. I wonder if this place is still even on the map now?

Yugoslavian - or Bosnian these days - would make some sense, too. I think the ties between the Bosnian Islamofascists and the Middle Eastern Islamofascists (Al Qaida et. al.) have been established.

If it's Eastern European, my guess would be KLA or Chechen.
