Omar al-Faruq appears on video

Omar al-Faruq, one of the Indonesia-based terrorists that escaped from US custody in Afghanistan last July has appeared in a video taped interview. SITE Institute has the story here. An old video clip of Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri was added by al-Qaeda's production company al-Sahab, presumably to add the big dog's seal of approval. It is a theory of mine that al-Faruq was turned, or at least collaborated with his captors. Some folks agree.

I'm suspicious of this new video. It may very well be a fake.
