When he was arrested, al-Halabi was carrying two handwritten notes from detainees that al-Halabi intended to turn over to someone traveling to Syria, the charging documents say. He was also carrying his personal laptop computer, which contained classified information about detainees and 180 messages from detainees al-Halabi intended to send to Syria or Qatar, the documents allege.

Al-Halabi, who joined the Air Force in January 2000, is Syrian. He also is accused of lying to the Air Force by falsely claiming to have become a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2001."

Al-Halabi, 24, is being held at Vandenberg Air Force Base.....The most serious charges against him, espionage and aiding the enemy, could carry the death penalty.Goodbye Al-Halabi. By giving that info to the enemy it lets them know who we're holding, maybe info that leads them to changing their attack plans. Maybe uncovering some spys we may have.....arrrrggggg.
Is that hanging or by firing squad? Does anyone know?

This statement just looks a wee bit out of place given the seriousness of everything else...
Al-Halabi is accused of taking pictures of the prison camp and having unauthorized contact with the inmates, including giving them baklava desserts.
Gotta snicker at that.
But take a look here:
The documents allege he contacts with the Syrian Embassy to the United States that he failed to report as required.
He also is accused of lying to the Air Force by falsely claiming to have become a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2001.
Please tell me they didn't take his word for it...
Secret documents al-Halabi is accused of trying to pass to Syria include details of flights to and from the Guantanamo Bay base, names, serial numbers and cell numbers of prisoners, a map of the base and other military documents.
al-Halabi was carrying two handwritten notes from detainees that al-Halabi intended to turn over to someone traveling to Syria, the charging documents say. He was also carrying his personal laptop computer, which contained classified information about detainees and 180 messages from detainees al-Halabi intended to send to Syria or Qatar
And of course bank fraud is the cherry on the sundae.

Time to unchock some B-2s and have 'em get up close and personal with downtown Damascus.
