Does this mean we should drop boxes of Viagra on terror camps as a counter-terrorism ploy? From the Daily Mail:
A bummer when he finally meets those 72 virgins...
“An Al Qaeda henchman used impotency injections so that he could focus on carrying out jihad and not on womanising, according to investigators.
Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri was captured in November 2002 after becoming one of the terrorist cell’s most senior members with strong links to Osama bin Laden.
During interrogations at CIA camps he is said to have confessed to injecting himself with the powerful chemicals to stop himself being distracted by women.
One interrogator reported: ‘Detainee is so dedicated to jihad that he reportedly received injections to promote impotence and recommended the injections to others.’
Evidence stated that the extremist reportedly took the injections ‘so more time could be spent on jihad – rather than being distracted by women,’ according to the Daily Telegraph.
Nashiri was captured in November 2002 and held for four years in one of the CIA’s ‘black site’ prisons.
He was allegedly the ‘senior operative’ in the suicide bombing of the Navy destroyer Cole in 2000 in which 17 U.S. soldiers were killed and dozens more were injured.
Nashiri is also reported to have been under bin Laden’s orders when he planned an attack on the French oil tanker MV Limburg in 2002.
He is understood to have been one of three al-Qaeda chieftains that were subjected to a form of simulated drowning known as waterboarding.”
