Clark: Abd El-Rahman did not want to take revenge on US

Originally published

Former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark, the defense lawyer for the Islamic group's mentor, Sheikh Omar Abd El-Rahman, who is imprisoned for life in a US jail, has denied reports that his client has ever written a legal opinion in which he demanded revenge on the United States.

Clark accused the US administration of using the information to abuse Islam and Muslims and using the information to justify their hostility toward them, adding the United States greatly fears the reaction of Moslems if Sheikh Omar dies inside the jail.
