Now I know why the women's clothes jumped at me, about a year ago, there was something about OBL dressed as a woman.
Or did the Zaw. use them to escape?
Maybe the rest will come to me, but I have seen it in print, might have been us talking here?
The clipped part from your post:
" commando
uniforms, as well as womens clothes and wigs, the statement said."
There has been a number of male jihadis dressed in burqas to move around. Some were caught; some were not.
22 April 2005 Saudi Arabia
A group of four insurgents dressed as women attempt to bluff their way past a security checkpoint near the holy city of Makkah. The police gave chase as the group fled in a car. They were surrounded in a hilly area near Umm Al-Joud southeast of the city. Two militants and two security officers were killed in the resulting shootout, an unknown number were wounded. The battle took place as the Western Region of Saudi Arabia was conducting its first-ever elections for local government councils.
