Reader comment on item: [Abdurahman Alamoudi:] Qaddafi's American Hit Man?

So vital was Alamoudi to the plot that Qaddafi had all others leave the room so he could talk privately with him. "Why do you cooperate with us against the crown prince of Saudi Arabia?" Qaddafi asked him. "Because I disapprove of what the crown prince said to you," Alamoudi reportedly answered (to this observer's ear, pretty unconvincingly ). Qaddafi instructed him, "I want the crown prince killed either through assassination or through a coup." Alamoudi and Ismael apparently traveled to London to locate and recruit Saudi Islamists, spending over $2 million in cash along the way.

If indeed: "Qaddafi had all others leave the room " how come there was :"this observer's ear"?

Doesn't sound like a very reliable story...
