Terror Networks
Bosnian Tied To Al Qaeda
2002-12-04
A Bosnian Muslim arrested by U.S. troops on suspicion of spying on a U.S. base is linked to the al Qaeda terrorist network, peacekeepers said yesterday. Sabahudin Fijuljanin, 41, was arrested Oct. 26 by U.S. troops from the NATO-led peacekeeping force based in Tuzla, northeastern Bosnia, when they saw him allegedly spying on their base.

During an investigation, the troops found an antitank weapon and several passports in Fijuljanin's home. "We have information which links Fijuljanin to al Qaeda," said Lt. Cmdr. Yves Vanier, a spokesman for the peacekeepers.
Antitank weapon and several passports, I think that fits the profile of a al-Qaeda elk hunter quite nicely.

#3  When you read the history of the Balkans, it's difficult to find a group that never stabbed an ally in the back. Sometimes the Serbs fought the Turks, sometimes they fought for the Turks. And so on.

And, besides, what we did for Bosnia is so... yesterday.

#1  Apparently there's no word for "gratitude" in Bosnian, either.
