When are we going to start seeing traitors executed?
The Feds didn't waste any time putting a needle into Timothy McVeigh. But then, he was a politically-correct candidate for the death penalty, right?
And "this" guy is legally allowed to become a NATURALIZED citizen?
Yikes!
Even those immigrants who aren't illegally crossing our borders in the dead of night don't receive but a passing glance before they're handed American Citizenship papers.
"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. It doesn't matter if they're terrorists or pedophiles or a legion of Pee Wee Hermans . . . just give them to me."
BTTT

Thank you for the ping Jet.
If guilty this guy will be kept alive like most other spies and traitors. It is a shame that we may have to keep them alive for future exchange if one of ours is captured. This always seemed like the best argument against the death penalty. If we can't execute spies and traitors, why should we execute murderers who are insane.
Just an average Joe
That's the scariest part. How many are there just like him?
Local headquarters?

Perhaps the Republican Gov can spray for Demo-rats which infest the bureau.
8 yrs Evan Bayh + 8 yrs Frank O'Bannon/Joe Kernan =
bankrupt and corrupt
BINGO! You'd think Gov Mitch would put this at the top of his list. Perhaps this new scandal will move it up.
I can hear the Libs puckering as I type!

A Greenfield truck driver accused of offering to sell the names of U.S. intelligence agents to the Iraqi government received espionage training in Russia about 30 years ago, authorities say.
Court documents released Friday in the case of Shaaban Hafiz Ahmad Ali Shaaban also reveal that the Jordanian native had five passports and used several Social Security numbers, the Indy Star web site reported.
Shaaban, 52, was arrested Thursday. He is scheduled to appear for a detention hearing Wednesday before U.S. Magistrate Kennard Foster.
It sounds like he was under some kind of deep cover, said Edward B. Atkeson, a senior fellow at the Arlington, Va.--based Institute of Land Warfare and a former chief of Army intelligence in Europe. Hes got some professional backing. He couldnt have built that kind of background and documentation by himself.
In 1972 he lived in Moscow and married his first wife, Svetlana Anatolevna Shaban. Its unclear whether they were divorced, the news site wrote.
During his stay in Moscow, the U.S. government says, Shaaban received training from Russian intelligence agents. The documents do not detail what kind of training. Authorities refused to elaborate.
At the time, Atkeson said, the Soviet Union was active in the international spy game.
They did everything. You name it, they were up to it, Atkeson said, noting that the fact that Shaaban was allowed to enter Russia is a signal that he was likely recruited.
It was a police state - nobody came in without their clear interest, Atkeson said. They would take a Jordanian with the idea of using him somehow.
Shaabans first wife is thought to reside in Florida. Attempts to reach her were unsuccessful.
A federal grand jury this week indicted Shaaban on charges of conspiracy, acting illegally as a foreign agent, violating sanctions against Iraq, unlawful procurement of identification documents and unlawful procurement of naturalization.
If convicted, he could face up to 10 years in prison, $250,000 in fines and deportation.
Thanks for the ping Tailgunner Joe.
Yipes! Thanks for the ping.
What they need to do is reframe this guy as a 'Right Wing Neo-Nazi Fascist Traitor who tried to sell secrets to the iraqis' Then they would get a death sentence outta the MSM.
