U.S. posts wrong photo of ‘al-Qaida operative’ (http://msnbc.msn.com/id/11042211/)
WASHINGTON - United States intelligence agencies have been hunting for one of al-Qaida's most notorious members - an expert in poisons and lethal chemicals. But NBC News has learned they have been trying to find him by using a photo of the wrong man on his wanted poster.
I have to ask this question !
How many people have been tortured to death because of this "wrong photo" ?
"a CIA spokesman then admitted a “human error” and said, at some point, an “incorrect photo” was provided for the Web site. However, the official insists all other intelligence on Abu Khabab is accurate."
i don't think the CIA would arrest someone and torture him to death just because he looks like the guy in the photo. first they must have some valid information about the person, so even if the photo was wrong that doesn't mean anything.
