Abdul Rahman Yasin is wanted for his alleged participation in the terrorist bombing of the World Trade Center, New York City, on February 26, 1993, which resulted in six deaths, the wounding of numerous individuals, and the significant destruction of property and commerce.

The last anyone knew he had retired to Baghdad on a government pension.
Might want to mention ABDUL RAHMAN YASIN was born in Baghdad and fled to Iraq after the bombing.
But no we can't build a wall on the Southern boarder and control the influx of illegal aliens.
That would be racism.
Pardon my sarcasm, please.
According to the FBI, he was born in Indiana.
In appearances, he certainly could. But since he was born in America to Iraqi parents, he would have a mix of those accents I would guess.
My point is that those of middle east decent can easily pass for Mexicans.
Languages can be learned and with training and practice accents can also be learned.
There is a very nice tribute to Rescorla in today's Investor's Business Daily.

Thanks!!
You're correct. Born in Bloomington, Indiana; his family moved back to Iraq shortly after his birth. I should have said "raised in Baghdad.
Thanks for the correction.
Not that this means there was any connection between Iraq and terrorists before Bush's war of course..

Rick Rescorla would spit on Bill Clinton, Sandy Berger and Madeline Albright. Great man.
Send the guy for therapy for six months with the promise it won't happen again.
Ah, the castrati method. I prefer the Pulp Fiction "pair of pliers and a blowtorch" method for terrorists myself.
I think the traditional English punishment for treason was very effective.
First stretch out the convicted on a table in public view.
Castrate the convict and display the testicles to the convict.
Feed the testicles to stray dogs.
Slice open the abdomen of the convict.
Pull out the intestines of the convict and burn them before the eyes of the convict.
Behead the convict and place the head on a pike for the crows to feast upon.
Quarter the convict and send the four and send the pieces to the four corners of the land as a warning to those who would defy the King.
But...but wasn't there just a senate report out today that said there was no connection between al-queda and saddam? Just a note, ramsey yousef also carried an iraqi passport and fled back to saddam's embrace after the bombing. 'Bout half the sheep in this country will believe the enemy's propaganda, put out by our own effing senate. How f#$%^&g stupid do they think we are? Well, actually they have about 50% pegged.
Oh NO! We can't possibly connect anything or anyone to Iraq that had anything to do with the WTC or OKC bombings! Shame, shame!!! /sarcasm
They were supposed to have passed a law about the wall in the house. But alas, a wall won't stop them anyway. We can't build a wall across the entire border and then they will still get here some other way. Students anyone???
Why cant we build a wall that close the entire southern boarder?
The Chinese built the Great Wall that spanned nearly 4000 miles using only the most primitive tools. They built it over mountains and deserts. Can the ancient Chinese accomplish greater feats of engineering than the modern Americans?
I sure that the most prosperous country that has yet existed on this Earth can manage to build an effective barrier to unlawful immigration.
Perhaps the illegal immigrants will find other paths in to the US (I am sure that some will), but when they do we will find new impediments to there new methods.
Wouldn't it be cheaper to hand out 50 cal. machine-guns to the border patrol mounted in towers 300 meters apart with some concertina wire between us and Mexico. That's how we set up our forts in Viet Nam. You put up a fence and they will come and climb it. You shoot them dead, and they will stop coming.
