  • Plotter of the USS Cole bombing ESCAPES!

    Unreal!



    (CNN) -- Interpol has issued "an urgent global security alert" after 23 "dangerous individuals" -- including a man identified as the mastermind of the attack on the USS Cole in 2000 -- escaped from a Yemeni prison.

    The international crime-fighting organization said Sunday at least 13 of the 23 who escaped Friday were "convicted al Qaeda terrorists, some of whom were involved in attacks on U.S. and French ships in 2000 and 2002."

    "Al Qaeda terrorists have been deemed a serious threat to the entire world community by the U.N. Security Council, by Interpol and by a wide range of countries," Interpol Secretary General Ronald K. Noble said in the statement.

    They escaped via a 140-meter (150-yard) -long tunnel "dug by the prisoners and co-conspirators outside," Interpol said.

    "Their escape cannot be considered an internal problem for Yemen alone."

    Among the escapees was Jamal Ahmed Badawi, considered the mastermind behind the attack on the USS Cole on October 12, 2000.

    Badawi was sentenced to death in September 2004 for plotting the attack. Two suicide bombers blew up an explosives-laden boat next to the destroyer while the destroyer was in the Aden, Yemen, harbor for a routine fuel stop.

    The attack killed 17 sailors and wounded 39 others.

    The FBI released a statement saying that information about the escape was "currently coming in through government channels."

    "We are closely monitoring the situation at this time and we will work with our domestic and international partners to actively pursue these dangerous terrorists through the means we have available," the statement said.

    Also among the escapees was Fawaz Yahya Al-Rabeei, one of those responsible for attacking the French tanker Limburg in 2002.

            Yeah, everyone knows it was EVC who helped them escape.

                Supposedly Yemen is a hot bed of Islamic radicalism. It would be interesting to see if it was just run of the mill third world incompetance or if some of the guards helped them.

                  Is that escaped or "escaped"?

                          Supposedly???

                          Not only is it a breeding ground for this ideology, it is also an area of the worst tribalism. Most of the leaders of al-Qaeda are Yemenis (the region, not the country), as several chunks of Yemen were incorporated into the KoSA.
