Abstract
- The article presents information about Khalid, an insurgent. He lived quietly in England for a year and a half, working at the corner shop and praying at a local mosque. Around that time, he befriended a fellow Yemeni who would come to share his passion for jihad, Wa'il al Dhaleai, who was well known in England as a leading tae kwon do instructor and Olympic hopeful. In 2003, when the U.S. invaded Iraq, it was clear to Khalid where he would next do battle. Getting into Iraq from Syria was no more difficult than dressing up like a farmer and walking across the border with phony papers in the middle of the night.
