Another mosque leader, Mohammed Mosharref Hossain, 49, an owner of a downtown pizzeria, also was arrested at his home, according to mosque members.

Hmmm, that wouldn't be one of the places across from where QE2 used to be, would it?

3. From the Yahoo link

According to law enforcement officials, the two are being charged with providing material support to terrorism by participating in a conspiracy to help someone they believed was a terrorist purchase a shoulder-fired missile. The person was in fact a convicted felon working undercover for the government to reduce his prison sentence for document fraud.

5. Says WHO?

"The person was in fact a convicted felon working undercover for the government
to reduce his prison sentence for document fraud."

When "law officials" do nothing about the crimes
committed by the misadminstration against this country,
I somehow have a hard time believing anything they say.

4. They raid after they set these men up in a sting or entrapment operation.

Great going guys. As though we don't have enough legit terrorists, we have to make our own.
