Feds know identities of other men in Fort Dix Six jihadi training video

Sad that it took a minor righty media outfit like CNS to ask this rather important and otherwise almost completely overlooked question.

The FBI knows the identity of four men who took part in jihadist training exercises in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains last year along with six others now under arrest for an alleged terrorist plot, but they have insufficient evidence to charge the four at this stage.

A DVD showing 10 radicals firing assault rifles and calling for jihad spurred the federal investigation that culminated in six arrests this week in connection with a planned terrorist attack on Fort Dix, N.J. But what about the other four?

“We know where they are and the investigation continues,” Jerri Williams, a special agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, told Cybercast News Service. “However, at this time we do not have evidence that would link them directly to the [Fort Dix] plot. We are aware of their participation in the firearms training but the investigation to date does not provide us evidence to charge them.”

Exit question: When does Ron Paul or Rick Ellensburg accuse the store clerk who reported the the DVD of having violated the six’s privacy rights?

No one bothers to ask who the other 4 jihadis are but they sure are eager to reveal the name of the Circuit City hero.

Circuit City declines to give employee name.

Your wonderful MSM at work.

Exit answer: I’m surprised it hasn’t happened yet.

That store clerk is a hero and should be recognized as such, but he’s a smart man to lay very, very low.

John Doe and Circuit City…….we really needed to know that. Freedom of the press, rah rah rah. Now the clerk gets bamboozled by a 10 grand for his 60minutes interview so CBS can point out the evils of domestic surveillance.

I blame the FBI for even mentioning it. The only ones who needed the information were the 12 citizens on the jury.

wait, wait, wait… these guys are on a jihadi training video with the other 6 charged and there’s not enough to detain (arrest) them?

What the hell? I mean, for all the whining the left does about the patriot act can’t we at least get some bang for our buck?

In the words of AllahP: Good Gracious!

No wonder there’s a peace agreement in Ireland – the IRA is moving to the States where they can’t be detained.

Answer to Exit Question: Ron Paul wouldn’t accuse the clerk of violating anyone’s right to privacy as the Const. doesn’t explicitly mention such a right.

In Massachusetts eight of our nine congressmen voted against the bill that would protect citizens from lawsuits filed by ass hats like this.

Mass democrats… fighting for the Jihadi’s right to blow you up.

My guess is that they are named Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed and Mohammed.

It’s a psychic thing. Don’t try to understand it.

I can bet that they are following those 4 very closely.

Let me guess. Their names are:

Murtha, Kusinich, Reid and Durbin.
