A few general comments (I'm an American living in Khobar). The account is fairly accurate though at times it goes off into a fanciful world -- Not a single survivor, hostage or witness reports any cooperation between the Muslims encountered and the militants. In fact there were several instyances were Muslims protected non-Muslims The supposed 40 foot jump at 2100 never happened. First of all they wouldn't have found the terrain soft and second there is forensic evidence that shows they were still in the building till about 0300. They were apparently let out about 0300 in a stupid exchange, not a daring escape at 2100 as they stated.
