Europe, Boring Until it's Not

So guy converts to Islam and travels to Afghanistan in 2002 to fight with the Taliban and AQ.

FAKE NEWS
He travelled to Pakistan and was trying to get to Iran. His first contact with the Taliban was when they imprisoned him for having a British passport. He never fought with the Taliban or AQ. Stop lying to support your narrative it makes you look dishonest.

Yeah. Of course. I remember back in 2002, I went on a backpacking vacation through the Khyber Pass and hung out with Taliban too. Totally normal.

It doesn't matter whether that's true or not. He was arrested on sight, as a British national, and put into an Iraqi prison for 2 years. Go watch Midnight Express, and tell me how cozy that was.

Then, after the US wipes the floor with Sadaam, and closes his torture palaces, the guy gets shipped off to Guantanamo for having the wrong story, where he's kept for years more, without charge then released. What kind of life do you think he had after that? It's enough to make anyone lose their minds.

Fucking read much? Not Iraq. Not Saddam.

The truck was stopped when he passed near the Afghan border. Taliban guards, seeing his British passport, arrested him as a British spy, which was typical of their treatment of foreigners.American troops discovered Al-Harith among numerous foreigners held by the Taliban in jail in Kandahar and released him.

Funny how MI5 and Australian intelligence considered him to have been no security threat after investigating his case.
From a 2004 article,

Born Ronald Fiddler to Jamaican parents, Mr Harith was a website designer living in Manchester who converted to Islam about a decade ago.

It is believed that he travelled to Australia in early 2000 after striking up an internet romance with Samantha Cook, staying with her in Perth for several months.

He returned to Manchester before travelling to Pakistan in early 2002.

A spokesman for Attorney-General Philip Ruddock confirmed that Mr Harith spent several months in Perth. When he arrived, he was not on any alert list and "he wasn't considered at that time a security risk", the spokesman said.

ASIO began its investigation after being notified by US authorities. "He is not considered to be a security risk now," Mr Ruddock's spokesman said

Because their fucking track record is fucking spotless.

That's his story. Funny, people trained to detect bullshit didn't buy it.

Alaska-Florida shooter turned himself in to them, told them he was working for ISIS, they released him.

Those are cases of your intelligence services failing aren't they?
I rate MI5 as much better at their job.
