Hello, London Calling! <<I knew at least 6 young men who in 1999, talked openly of Bin Lardin, known affectionately and worshipfully as "Bin". They obtained Afgan Passports (I know because I took their photographs). I did not know at the time but they wanted their portrait with a background of Afganistan. One had no picture of their "home" in Afganistan so I found one in a book in the local library. I understand they needed to convince the Talisban that they were born in that country to qualify for a passport. I understand the group of them went on a summer holiday job as fighters for the Talisban who were at war with Russia at the time. >> Chris I think you have revealed how the terrorists are able to keep their on-line communications active but still secret in the internet world. Bin Lardin (sic) Afgan (sic) Talisban (sic) Change one letter and google is b*ggered! No need for PGP encryption. No amount of automatic email surveillance will work unless you use the exact match. Bob PS: I have to ask. Have you completely fallen off your trolley or are ye the new god of "black comedy"? PPS: http://www.talibanreunited.com/
