Minnesota Man Indicted for Alleged Al Qaeda Link
Wed January 21, 2004 05:34 PM ET

CHICAGO (Reuters) - A 30-year-old Minnesota man has been indicted on charges of supporting al Qaeda, the group blamed
by the United States for the 2001 attacks on New York and Washington, the Justice Department said on Wednesday.

Mohammed Warsame, 30, of Minneapolis, gave "material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist
organization, namely al Qaeda" beginning in March of 2000 and continuing until his arrest in Minneapolis in December, the
indictment alleged.

The indictment from a federal grand jury in Minneapolis did not say exactly how Warsame is alleged to have aided the group
headed by fugitive Islamic extremist Osama bin Laden.

1. Yet one step closer to that mythical 5,000,000 terror suspect figure.

+1

At this rate Earth would have gone through 1000 Ice Ages before it added up to 5,000,000.

2. Why is it that I doubt that this particular soul probably didn't do

anything and has simply been falsely accused?

Perhaps it is because there is no record that I know of that indicates that "a foreign organization, namely al Qaeda" exists, except in the minds of the media people and bush.

3. Ridiculous

Where 'ya been? Do you not remember Clinton speeches about the group? Saying they only exist in the minds of the media and bush is fringe thinking and intellectual suicide.

4. Ok, my mistake, It's all Clinton's fault!

Would be nice to find out what the guy is being charged with. As the indictment doesn't say. I'm sure he wants to know too.

5. Hey, didn't Bush Sr. aid Saddam? Shouldn't we arrest him too?

And GW Bush is aiding Sharon, shouldn't we arrest him too?

Oh, I forgot, people are only terrorists when WE say they are.
