A former al-Qaeda member testified at a terrorism trial in New York that he left the group after it failed to pay for his pregnant wife’s medical care and later began cooperating with a U.S. probe of two embassy bombings.
Kherchtou dropped his head, began to cry, nodded and wiped his eyes under his wire-rimmed glasses. U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan said he didn’t hear Kherchtou’s answer. Chernoff rephrased the question saying, “Did your wife need treatment for her pregnancy and al-Qaeda refused to pay the bill?” “Yes,” Kherchtou whispered, and began to weep, taking a tissue and wiping tears from his face and blowing his nose.On a completely unrelated note...I want to dress and live like this guy. Am i wrong for thinking that?
On an even more unrelated note, check out Doug Ross on reason #93,278 why California is broke.
