Dear Brian,

I enjoyed your article, but noted something key to expand upon:

"An unknown group calling itself the Secret Organization of Al Qaeda in Europe took responsibility on a website. The claim could not be verified; many specialists doubted its authenticity."

Can you let us know who these specialists are?

In the rush to conclusions crucial evidence could be missed, including whether or not the claim is a fake or real. Please let me know, or if possible have something printed in the next edition of the Globe

Thanks,
BK

NOTE: The same day I received a nice short response, it said in part "doubts about because of how it was posted, the language used, and the fact that it was taken down later in the day" were the concerns. There wasn't much more to the email but I've decide to withold it here out of respect for Bryan's privacy. I sent him a short email thanking him and The Globe for their diligence, at least we have the specific questions worth asking with answers to look for.

Peace, BK (10/Jul/05)
