I take it that you have some sympathy for Sheikh Omar. Just wondering though if you have any familiarity with his background, like, for instance, the fact that he served time in an Indian jail for kidnapping 3 Britons and an American in 1994. Or the fact that he was freed by the Indian gov't after his terrorist comrades hijacked an Indian airliner in 1999 and demanded his release in return for not killing the passengers on the airliner.
