Story of the Day
This article at MSNBC is a fantastic read.Here is the story of a regular Muslim who was so angered by the events of September 11 that he vowed to help bring the villains to justice.
He became a double agent, spying on al Qaeda for the US.
In fact, he is the reason that Khalid Sheik Mohammed is in custody. This man, after his heroics, was whisked to safety, paid well for his service, and thanked personally by George Tenet. But what was the man concerned with in his conversation with Tenet? I give you the end of the article and the answer to that question:
The man had just bought his first suit with the help of CIA officers for his meeting with the CIA director. According to the former U.S. officials, Tenet asked him the obvious question: Why did you do this? Why did you risk your life?
The officials recounted their conversation like this:
“My religion doesn’t support this killing,” the man told Tenet, adding that he wanted these people “brought to justice.”
He asked Tenet, "Do you think the president [Bush] knows what I did?" Tenet smiled and responded: "He knows because I told him."
I love that!
