The name of Mullah Krekar emerged so many times in the activities of Ansar al Islam, the most dangerous Islamic network in Europe, and in connection with so many terror cells in Europe and the Middle East, that it is impossible to assume that Mullah Krekar is really innocent from harboring terror.
Mullah Krekar is an outstanding example of shrewd manipulation of the liberal judicial system in Europe.
