OTHER NEWS FROM KUWAIT AND IRAQ
All the weekend newspapers in the Gulf covered the report that a Kuwaiti, who had been released from the infamous prison at Guantanamo Bay, had killed himself and others in a suicide bombing attack in Iraq in April.
"A cousin said Abdullah Saleh Al-Ajmi, a Kuwaiti who was released from Guantánamo in 2005, was reported missing two weeks ago. His family learned of his death Thursday through a friend in Iraq, al-Arabiya said." In short, Al-Ajimi had been released from Gitmo without charge, indicating that there had been known grounds for charging him found after three years of incarceration there.
Al-Ajmi had been missing for several weeks this past month before his family in Kuwait learned of the former-army man's death in Iraq.
That's right. Al-Ajmi had been on leave from the Kuwait military at the time he was captured in Pakistan in 2002, and he was there ostensibly doing volunteer work-- helping children in Pakistan.
No one in Kuwait is openly stating or charging that whatever psychological scars he might have received at Gitmo may have led to Al-Ajmi's recent journey to Syria and his killing himself in a bombing in Iraq.
UM ALI
The "Mother of Ali" is a famous fortune teller in Kuwait. Perhaps Kuwaitis could turn her for answers about whether Al-Ajmi had earned the heart and soul of a suicide bomber before or after his three years in Gitmo.
