Til uvedkommende, der læser med: Der er ingen grund til at læse min mail.
Jeg har intet at gøre med FARC, al-Jihad, al-Qaida, Hamas, Hizb al-Mujahidin 
eller ETA.
Jeg har aldrig gjort Zakat, går ikke ind for Istishad, har ikke lavet en 
bilbombe eller kernevåben og jeg ved dårligt nok, hvad Al Manar og бомба 
betyder. 
Men tak for den udviste interesse
