Al-Qaeda Biological Weapons Expert Held in Israel
(Times of Israel) Stuart Winer - Samar Halmi Abdel Latif al-Barq, an al-Qaeda-trained terrorist and biological weapons expert, has been held in administrative detention in Israel for three years due to the danger he poses if allowed to walk free, Israel Channel 2 TV reported Sunday. The Israel Ministry of Justice said several attempts were made to transfer al-Barq to Arab countries, but no Arab country has agreed to accept him. Al-Barq was involved in planning attacks on Jews and Israelis in Jordan and also planned to teach Palestinian terrorists how to manufacture poisons. "He has great knowledge in the field of unconventional weapons, with a focus on biological [weapons]," the State Attorney wrote.
