You have a strange definition of harboring.

Kevin Artt

Currently locked up in a federal jail in Pleasanton, California. He did several
stints, since his arrest in '94, in prison and on electronically monitored
bail.

Pol Brennan

Not sure about his current where abouts, but was arrested in '93, did several
stints in jail (including plenty of time in solitary for failure to do prison
work), a few stints on electronically monitored bail and as late as October
1998 was back in jail.

Terence Kirby

Like Pol Brennan, not alot about Kirby after 2000. Latest word from 2000 was he
was in jail where he had been like the other 3.

Jimmy Smyth

Arrested in 1993, worked his way in, around and through the U.S. judicial
system until his return to Northern Ireland in 1998. Interestingly enough, he
was such a threat that he was released from prison in NI in 2000.

fled to the US. Couldn't be extradited
because they were victims of "political persecution".

That doesn't seem to have been the case. All four spent most of their time
(after being discovered and arrested) in jail working through the U.S. judicial
system. That is not being harbored.

As far as terrorism is concerned, life is simple and very obvious.

What's "obvious" about it?

That if you are helping terrorists, harboring them or assisting them in any way
we will stop the activity for you. Simple and obvious.

The potential of Hussain.

To do what? He was bottled up and contained.

And supporting AQ fighters from Afghanistan with medical aid and who knows what
else. Saddam's conventional forces were contained however his work with and for
terrorists was continuing.
