| Subject: Dopey propaganda: Ex-US student is al-Qaeda terror mastermind: FBI Sun Aug 08, 2010 2:03 am | |
| A federal fugitive and former US community college student who lived in this South Florida city with his mother and five siblings has become head of global operations for the Islamic terror network al-Qaeda, according to the FBI - a worrisome development that may make US targets more vulnerable.
The FBI told The Associated Press that it marks the first time a person so intimately familiar with American society has been put in charge of planning attacks, and that Adnan G. El Shukrijumah's new position puts him in regular contact with al-Qaeda's senior leadership, including Osama bin Laden.
El Shukrijumah is thought to be the only al-Qaeda leader to have held permanent US resident status, or a green card.
