Spanish Police arrests Egyptian man who is one of the most wanted ISIS members in Europe
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]
From Skidmark’s Daily Mail link in the comments:
  • Spanish police said they had arrested one of Europe's most wanted terrorists along with two other men

  • Police sources said today that it was British-Egyptian “ISIS rapper” Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary

  • Abdel Bary was once thought to be Jihadi John, but he was actually Mohammed Emwazi

#4 Good find, Skidmark. I’ve added the key info to the article so it will be searchable. I also did a name link search on our boy, only to discover another jihadi family: his pops, Adel Abdel Bary, is serving 25 years here for causing trouble as a bigshot in Al-Qaeda/Egyptian Islamic Jihad’s London organization, the latter back when it was Ayman al-Zawahiri‘s outfit. From the 2015 article:

[Pops’] alleged co-conspirator -- Saudi exile Khalid al-Fawwaz, the purported chief of the London Al-Qaeda cell -- is currently on trial in New York.

A third co-conspirator, Libyan defendant Abu Anas al-Libi, died in jug last month from natural causes.

#5 The real beaut is his father, Adel Abdel. His wiki page makes for interesting reading. I'm sure he even graces the Rantburg archives. It shows that immigration and asylum policies of the UK have been seriously screwed for quite a while.

#6 Pops does indeed show up in our archives, Dron66046, for the first time in a Dan Darling article from 2005. See the search here.

We’re very proud of Mr. Darling, who started here when he was in high school, as I recall, and after his university training discovered he could turn his hobby into lucrative employment.
