10 USS Cole suspects escape Yemini jail
10 USS Cole suspects escape Yemeni jail

SANAA: Ten Yemenis suspected of involvement in the deadly October 2000 attack on the USS Cole escaped from a jail Friday in the southern port of Aden, local authorities said.

The men broke out of a window around 5:00 am (0200 GMT) and the jailers realized about an hour later that they were gone, said the officials, who requested anonymity.

Among those who escaped was Jamal Badawi, one of the principal suspects held over the attack, which killed 17 US sailors and was claimed by Osama bin Laden’s Al-Qaeda terrorist network.

Local officials said seven other suspects in the Cole case remained in prison.

3. These Cole suspects are ALWAYS escaping from Yemeni jails!
This has happened *at least* once before and seems like it's gone round more than once. It's hard to take seriously.

8. They're almost as bad as those 911 masterminds!

If ever there was a top-heavy organization, well, Hamas, I guess, comes close. Nothing but masterminds and top leaders. I guess it's easy on the powerpointwallahs who make the organizational charts, though.

I thought I remembered something like that happening before, but I wasn't certain. Deja vu all over again.

13. this is an OLD story...why is theDaily Times reposting this?
http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/meast/04/11/cole.escapes/

When you print out the dailytimes article, the date at the bottom of the page says 12-4-2003 eventhough the article looks like it was posted on their site today? :wtf:

Is it tinfoil hat time, or is this just some screw up of the dailytimes?
