#1 OK, this guy was funding his own anti-Jihad expedition and on his way to Syria. From the details we have been given, I fail to see the big issue. At worst he gets his neck cut in Bekaa, and at best he collects the bounty or locates some of Sadam's lost WMD. =)

#2 My take is either he's a nut or perhaps a not-to-bright syrian want-a-be jihadi. Better he's off the street either way. If he made it to Syria, he could have been kidnapped and made out to be a CIA agent.

#3 Yeah, those stun guns don't work too good without the ammunition...

#4 Sounds like he was prepared. Just possibly he knows something. Binny in Syria wouldn't surprise me.
