He was quite good in Lawrence of Arabia. You'd think that would rate a clemency at least.

I can believe in a "suicide bomber at large" - but I have trouble with the "alive" part.

Kissing Barbra Streisand must have had something to do with it.

Body found in Israel 'may be missing Briton'

Police are trying to identify the body of a man washed up on the shore in Tel Aviv they believe may be that of Omar Khan Sharif.

Sharif, a British Muslim, is believed to be the accomplice to a suicide bomber who killed three at a Tel Aviv bar, Israel TV reported.

On April 30, Asif Hanif, 21, from the London suburb of Hounslow, set off explosives he was carrying in front of Mike's Place, a popular Tel Aviv bar that caters to foreigners and immigrants, killing himself, a waitress and two musicians.

Police said Sharif, 27, of Derby, also tried to blow himself up at the scene, but his explosives belt malfunctioned and he escaped. Police have been searching for him ever since.

Israel TV's Second Channel reported that police were checking the body that appeared on the Tel Aviv shore to see if it was Sharif's. The police and military had no immediate comment.

Are they sure it's the same Omar Sharif of Dr. Zhivago?

I think you're right. I believe that if I ever kissed Barbra Streisand, I'd become suicidal for sure.

Well, this guy was born about 12 years after Dr. Zhivago was released, so it's possible it's not the same guy...

I guess he wasn't a very good suicide bomber.

All fixed now.
