and then I give it to the Syrians.
At least that's what this clown did. USAF Senior Airman Ahmed I. al-Halabi has been arrested on charges of espionage. The AP reports:
"al-Halabi was carrying two handwritten notes from detainees that al-Halabi intended to turn over to someone traveling to Syria, the charging documents say. He also was carrying his personal laptop computer containing classified information about detainees and 180 messages from detainees he intended to send to Syria or Qatar, it was alleged."
In addition, Halabi:
_Took pictures of the prison camp.
_Had unauthorized contact with the inmates, including giving them baklava desserts.
_Had contacts with the Syrian Embassy to the United States which he failed to report as required.
_Lied to the Air Force by falsely claiming to have become a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2001. Al-Halabi, who joined the Air Force in January 2000, is Syrian.
And the fact that the guy is Muslim? And that Chaplain, too? Oh wait, that's racial profiling. And we all know that's bad, right?
