"Work" in Syria

There is no reference in this Wikipedia entry to Mr Harkin's Middle Eastern subject expertise, nor of his sojourn(s) in Syria.

"Of more serious concern were Cantlie’s attempts at chumminess with foreign Islamists. “John was trouble, man. He didn’t care about anything,” Mustafa told me, when I met him at the Syrian-Turkish border afterwards."

Perhaps you fix it Jim, when you read this. Wouldn't want anyone to come to any false and absurd conclusions about being an MI6 officer, eh. Good job lionizing someone others might consider, on the basis of their words and actions, an avowed traitor by means of that biography, btw.
