A federal grand jury has indicted three Ohio men on terrorism charges alleging they plotted to kill U.S. and coalition military personnel in Iraq and other countries.
The three men were arrested over the weekend and were to be arraigned in federal courts in Cleveland and Toledo on Tuesday afternoon, said Assistant U.S. Attorney David Bauer.
According to the indictment unsealed Monday, the three suspects recruited others to train for a violent holy war against the United States and its allies in Iraq.
The indictment says they traveled together to a shooting range to practice shooting guns and studied how to make explosives.
The indictment alleges that one of the men, Mohammad Zaki Amawi, twice threatened to kill or inflict bodily harm against President Bush while speaking with others.
Prosecutors say the plot began in November 2004.
Amawi is a citizen of Jordan and the U.S.
The others are Marwan Othman El-Hindi, a U.S. citizen born in Jordan; and Wassim I. Mazloum, who came to the U.S. from Lebanon in 2000.

The ACLU is already preparing their response, decrying the violation of the suspects' civil rights.

Having seen the other press reports, would it kill the MSM to note that the three men were Muslim immigrants from Jordan, Jordan, and Lebanon?

I'm going to guess the latter, since MoveOn raises money to pay its directors lavishly, while Code Pink gives the money it raises directly to terrorists.

I will wager anyone, any amount, that the first question asked will be if the information was discovered WITHOUT a FISA court warrant?

Yes it definitely would kill the Treason Media to point out these facts.

The names of the suspects are a dead give away. The enemy has announced itsself.

I just heard this story on the 1 o'clock news on Dayton radio station WHIO 1290 AM. Luckily I read about this same story here in FR! The "team coverage" report mentioned (only) once that they were from Toledo, mentioned many times they are citizen of Ohio ("Three Ohio men..", "Three men living in Ohio..." etc.), and yet
not once mentioned-- or even hinted-- their names were Islamic.
Guess we're supposed to think those darn Amish are making trouble again.
