SANAA (AFP) — Two of 17 Al-Qaeda suspects on trial for planning attacks in Yemen admitted to having trained foreign fighters in Iraq and Afghanistan and that their war was with Americans not Yemenis.
The 13 Yemenis and four Saudis, who include veterans of the insurgency in Iraq, went on trial on February 22 on charges of planning attacks against US expatriates in Yemen and those who deal with them on the orders of Al-Qaeda leader in Iraq Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
"Our war is with the Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan, not in Yemen," Yemeni suspect Ali Abdullah Osyan, 28, told the judge during an appearance in a Sanaa court.
