Somebody keeps removing the statement that Krekar was leader of Ansar al-Islam. Krekar himself does not dispute this fact. There is however controversy over how long he was in charge of it's operations, and what degree of control he really had. -- Vindheim 19:35, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
The paragraph about the Navy Seals quotes Newsweek as saying "At one point, a Pentagon official proposed inserting a US Navy Seal team to engage in a "snatch rope" operation against Krekar." I know what a snatch rope (and a snatch recovery) is, but what is a snatch rope operation? Obviously it's some sort of (illegal) extraction, but how does it differ from other forms of kidnapping? What characteristics do these sort of operations have? Asav 05:52, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
"Krekar is still living in Norway." kinda snarky, isnt it? FaustX 02:06, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
Some people are listed under pen-names and nom de-guerre. Is this guy one of them? Geo Swan ( talk) 00:33, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
This should be eliminated. They never actually took or attempted to take the subject out of Norway, and it appears to be based on rumors, and the assumption two CIA agents who were previously in Milan during a snatch were present to do the same thing in Norway. Essentially, it's irrelevant, and coatracks the snatch and grab of another detainee. -- Yachtsman1 ( talk) 20:49, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
I am a Kurdish and I live in Erbil - Iraq. I am telling you that guy is NOT a terrorist and never will be. I am sure there's a hand behind that article to say he's a terrorist while he's not. He's in peace in any country except his birthplace country. because he feels and he thinks same as us. he want's the best for his country (as he want it to make it an religious country. he's my hero and soonest I can I will subtitle his speech with tv's — Preceding unsigned comment added by Omerjawhar ( talk • contribs) 01:27, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
KURDS are not arabs . he cant be kurd! NO TO islamist terorist! FREE KURDISTAN! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.182.38.108 ( talk) 08:43, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
I'm going to add Norwegian to his spoken languages. Why? Because he speaks norwegian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ingemazen ( talk • contribs) 00:53, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
In the first paragraph it is stated that Krekar is a scholar, with a citation to the Norwegian news paper Verdens Gang. The source comments on Krekar being on the list of terrorists connected to Al-Qaida put together by the UN. It does not, however, state that Krekar is a scholar of any sort. According to my knowledge Krekar did not go through education in Islam, and thereby he is not an "Islamic scholar". Or? -- Kristian Vangen ( talk) 17:43, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
In many Muslim nations anyone who has read about Islam, who can make knowledgeable comments about Islam, is considered a scholar.
How can you tell if someone is considered knowledgeable? Just like Christians show respect through the use of honorifics, like "Reverend", or "father", muslim scholars have honorifics applied to them too, including " Mullah", and several others. Sheikh is another honorific, implying muslim scholarship.
So, tha he is called Mullah Krekar shows someone respects his scholarship. Geo Swan ( talk) 05:08, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
