Still more jihad in America news. A "man," a "Minneapolis resident," a "naturalized Canadian citizen of Somali descent," for some unknown, unstated reason got mixed up with Al-Qaeda. Now why on earth would this man, this resident, this citizen, have done such a thing? True to form, Reuters offers no clue.
WASHINGTON, May 20 (Reuters) - A Minneapolis resident has pleaded guilty to conspiring to provide material support to al Qaeda and faces a prison term of up to 15 years, the U.S. Justice Department said on Wednesday.
Mohammed Abdullah Warsame, a naturalized Canadian citizen of Somali descent, was indicted in January, 2004, charged with one count of conspiracy to provide material support to al Qaeda, which plotted the September attacks.
Warsame, 35, faces a statutory maximum sentence of 15 years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine. The Justice Department said Warsame has agreed to be deported to Canada after his sentence is served.
According to the plea agreement, Warsame attended an al Qaeda training camp in Afghanistan in 2000, sent money to one of his former training camp commanders and met fugitive al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden....
This guy was from somalia, then Canada and now a citizen of the US.
