What the-? Armed intelligence officers yesterday raided the Amsterdam home of Paul Bigley, the brother of British hostage Ken Bigley, in the hunt for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of the Arab terrorist group which is believed to be holding him. It looks as though the 'official' reason for this is that they suspect that Bigley might have an email from al-Zarqawi with his address saying "next time you're in Iraq, pop in!" but then later in the article it's suggested that in it's heavy-handedness it's more to frighten the family into shutting up and stop telling the country's media that Ken's blood would be on Blair's hands if he was killed by the terrorists.
