BBC JOURNALIST EXCHANGED FOR AL QUEDA MASTERMIND?

BBC JOURNALIST EXCHANGED FOR AL QUEDA MASTERMIND?
From A Tangled Web

Well well! Even as the MSM still rings with the euphoria following the release of BBC reporter Alan Johnston, it is said that Britain told the Hamas terror group through mediators it would free from jail an extremist sheik accused of serving as al-Qaida's spiritual adviser in Europe, Palestinian sources involved in the negotiations claimed.

The sheik, Abu Qatada, is accused among other things of advising 9/11 terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui and attempted shoe-bomber Richard Reid. Qatada's sermons were found among the possessions of 9/11 operational leader Mohammed Atta. The Palestinian sources involved in the Johnston negotiations claimed the British government pledged through a third-party mediator to release Abu Qatada after six months so the release wouldn't appear connected to Johnston's freedom. Qatada has been detained in Britain as a terror suspect but was not tried or sentenced.

Smell a rat or two?
