#1 Dan, the headline should prolly read "Saudi Insurgents Returning Home From Iraq and Causing Trouble." The WaPo has a similar and very detailed story on page A1 today. As I read this article, it occurred to me that these fighters are now al-Q's "Individual Ready Reserve", leaving the theater of war (because it's getting harder to stay alive/free in Iraq?) to go home and take potshots at easier softer targets. The article was well done, except there is no reference in it to the fact that the House of Sod is complicit in this mess, rather than an innocent bystander.

#2 The real reason they are returning home is they know the Iraqi's won't be so nice to them when they get caught and they stick out like sore thumbs to the locals. Now that Iraqi security is "in charge" the beatings, torture and stuff that doesn't happen when the US forces get them will. Wahib does't want a electric anal probe administered by a practiced hand. So they are getting the hell out of Dodge.

Now they are "trained" the limpies in the Saudi branch of Osama and sons hope to use them in that kingdom. It is yet to be seen if these punkls will be anything more than a nusance that backfires on Osma with the public. After all they killed far more Iraqi citizens than "infidel crusaders." You can expect more of the same at home.
