BBC News - Al-Qaeda fighter Bekkay Harrach 'killed in Afghanistan': "A German al-Qaeda 
militant who once threatened to attack the country has been killed in Afghanistan, fellow militants say.Bekkay Harrach, who was born in Morocco and lived in the German city of Bonn, is said to have died leading an attack on the US air base at Bagram.
No date was given but the statement may refer to an attack last May.
Harrach appeared in al-Qaeda videos in 2009 threatening attacks during the German general election.
He was reported to be on a list of about 100 German nationals thought to be a security threat, and the authorities took his warnings seriously.
The laser technology student, who was 32 at the time, was believed to have travelled abroad to wage violent jihad in the West Bank, Iraq and the Pakistani region of Waziristan."
