Vanessa Redgrave helps Guantanamo suspects (Philip Johnston, 20/12/2007, Daily Telegraph)

Two suspected al-Qa’eda operatives released from Guantanamo Bay have walked free from court although they are still wanted in Spain on terrorism-related offences.

One of the men, who is accused of distributing extremist propaganda produced by Osama bin Laden, had half of his £50,000 bail surety met by the actress Vanessa Redgrave.

Well, at least streaking went out of fashion. Being a useful idiot, sadly, never does.
