*The Guardian has today published a Comment piece by Sa'ad al-Fagih. Al-Fagih is described as 'a leading exiled Saudi dissident and director of the Movement for Islamic Reform in Arabia'. I am concerned that the Guardian does not know that on 23 Dec 2004, Mr Al-Fagih was included on the United Nations 1267 Committee consolidated list of individuals belonging to or associated with the Al Qaida organisation.

My concern is this. If the Comments Editor of the Guardian did not know that al-Fagih is included on the United Nations list, he should have known. If he did know, the article should have informed your readers of al-Fagih's status.*
