"Triangle of Terrorism:" The Web Jihadist, the Mall Bomber, and the Sailor
By Andrew Cochran
Hassan Abujihaad of Phoenix was arrested yesterday as the third member of a "Triangle of Terrorism" which has snared suspects in London and Chicago. Abujihaad is accused of providing material support for the conspiracy to kill United States nationals and of illegally providing classified information. A press release issued by the U.S. Attorney in Connecticut, who has led the investigation, provides the details of the criminal complaint and the conspiracy between Abujihaad and London-based suspect Babar Ahmad. Michelle Malkin has an excellent summary of the case.
