Alleged Terrorist: 'We Were Hunting Nessie'
FOX ^ | 12/17/07 | Unknown

Posted on 12/17/2007 9:11:19 AM PST by Froufrou

An east London electrician accused of having terror ties claimed he was not attending training camps but hunting for the Loch Ness Monster during a trip to Scotland with other terror suspects, the Scottish Daily Record reported Saturday.

Kader Ahmed, 20, who faces three counts of attending a place used for terrorist training, told a U.K. court that he visited Inverness and Loch Ness three years ago with a group organized by preacher Mohammed Hamid, the Daily Record reported. Four members of this group have been convicted in the July 21, 2005 London bomb plot.

Ahmed, who went on paintball and other camping excursions with Hamid’s group, said he believed it was harmless fun “like Scouts or Cadets,” and that he did not believe the group was breaking the law.

In fact, Ahmed claimed, Hamid asked a senior cop “a number of times” if the group’s activities were legal in the aftermath of the July 2005 attacks and was told they were not breaking the law, the Daily Record reported.

[...getting creative...] What would have been his excuse if he were caught in over here? Looking for Paul Bunyan and the Blue Ox?

That all depends where they would have been training, but if it were near Lake Champlain, they could be tracking “Champ”, a Nessie look-alike. Or “Bessie” on Erie...

They’re taught to lie to us to further their agenda.

They’re just not taught very well......

That’s a good point. For example, they don’t have to be very well taught to die, since they only will do that once.

Nessie is an ally and friend in the WOT. These terrorist scum will be smoked out from wherever they had.

Thanks pcottraux.

Seems like these terror suspects deserve some help in their search for Nessie. I suggest baling wire and cement blocks.

That monster lived less than 2 miles from my house while he was getting his pilot’s license just south of town.
