I am always an avid news reader, but I just can't recall that happening in 2000.....And this thing about him working in an AIRPORT!!!, that's just unbelievable!!!!!

Answer 1

I don't remember that, and sadly I can believe it.  It is amazing this kind of thing happens.

Answer 2

I don't remember that story either. But the U.K. should have never granted that clown residency after threarening to blow up one of their planes. Not to mention let him slip through the back ground checks and end up working at the airport.

Here's another irony. I just finished reading a book written in 1989 by a man named Reinhart Hardegen. Mr. Hardegen was a German submarine captain in WW II. His was the first submarine to start sinking American ships off of NY, Carloinas, and Florida. He sank oil tankers mostly. Anyway, after the war, he moved to Florida, bought a home overlooking the ocean where he sank ships, and retired there. I suppose many free nations take in their enemies.

Answer 3

Yes, I remember the hijacking, and the fact that he was even allowed to stay here is astonishing, never mind him working at the airport as well....truly frightening really.
