The North Korean, identified as Jim Kim Su, was said to have planned attacks on unspecified British and U.S. interests throughout Lebanon in an attempt to stop a U.S.-led war against Iraq. Jim, who was found with $3,000, had visited Ein Hilwe several times recently.
The Syrian detainee was identified as Assad Qaraan.
So far, the sources said, it is not clear whether the attack was sponsored by Al Qaida or Iraq. The North Korea and Syrian were handed over the Lebanese military for interrogation.
Talk about giving the enemy sensitive information!
