One of Canada's most notorious terrorist leaders has returned home to Montreal after serving four years in a French prison for his role in an international jihadist network.Fateh Kamel, a 44-year-old Algerian-Canadian who headed a Montreal-based extremist cell, arrived in Montreal on Jan. 29 aboard an Air France flight, sources told the National Post.
A charismatic shopkeeper who led a double life as the international terrorist operative "Moustapha," Kamel was dubbed the "Islamist Carlos" because of his remarkable exploits around the world.
"I am GIA," he once said in a conversation intercepted by Italian counter-terrorism investigators. GIA is the French acronym for the Algerian Armed Islamic Group. "Killing is easy for me."
The best-known member of the so-called Groupe Fateh Kamel was Ahmed Ressam, the failed refugee claimant from Montreal who tried to blow up Los Angeles International Airport at the dawn of the millennium.
Captured in Jordan in 1999, Kamel was tried in Paris in 2001 and convicted for his involvement with terrorist groups. Although sentenced to eight years' imprisonment, he was released early for good behaviour. He has a Canadian wife and son.

Born in El Harrach, Algeria, Kamel moved to Canada in the 1980s and married a Quebec schoolteacher. He fought in the war in Afghanistan and later went to Bosnia, where the next international jihad was underway. He was injured there.
In Montreal, he was the boss of an Islamic extremist cell composed of Algerians and Moroccans. The group was a branch of the Algerian GIA, but also developed close links to bin Laden's al-Qaeda network.

I think this is an excellent example of the results of our multicultural policy of relativism. We essentially say that there are NO ethical standards that are common; any and everything is valid if it defines the identity of a group. If you, in your group, define your identity as terrorist, as focused on killing civilians, then we Canadians-who cannot take a principled stance - say "OK".
Then, we leave it up to others to fight those terrorists.
Concordia probably have an opening for him in their social sciences department.
So, in media babblespeak, a "charismatic shopkeeper" is just another polite way of saying terror recruiter and bombmaker, rather than a chatty vendor of Super Lotto and Mae West's?
Photoshop is fun eh?
The Left has committed suicide.
The smug, smiling, faces; exposing their throats to the knife.
To be technically accurate, I use the GIMP, but yes - it is tremendous fun.
Oh well....looks like we've welcomed home another citizen who will vote for the Liberals.
