no, and since he is only 18, I doubt he is saying much anymore that is valuable
he was compartmentalized when recruited, most likely told nonsense, and then sent to die for Allah
what can he really know??
only 18?
He is 23, was in 2007 the President of a student league in London at the college he was attending. He invited former Gitmo detainee Mozzam Begg to speak at a series of lectures. At the time, Begg’s big thing railing against Yemen detaining Awlaki at the request of the U.S. It fact, Abdulmuttalab sat next to Begg on the stage at one lecture.
Abdulmuttlab started skipping Arabic language classes at one college in San’a about three weeks after he arrive in Yemen, in August 2009. The Times UK reported other students saw him then attending lectures at El Emam (Imam) University in San’a. El Emam U. is headed by Zandani who is on the State Department’s terrorist list and Awlaki was under investigation by the FBI until March 2000 as a VP of Zandani’s organization.
Abdulmuttalab was out of sight in Yemen for about two months. What he can tell U.S. intelligence is a lot. Who he met, who sent him along the rat line to AQAP, who trained him, who he saw, and can be shown photographs of those suspected to have been in Yemen while he was there and if they also trained with the AQAP. (I am sure you know who Awlaki is.)
