Hmmmm. Are those really the salient details that New York Times readers need to know about Adis Medujanin and Najibullah Zazi in order to understand why they entered into this conspiracy? Or might the Queens college grad and the shuttle bus driver have shared a common motivating ideology? Naaah. "Queens Man Is Accused in Plot to Kill Service Members," by William K. Rashbaum in the New York Times, January 19 (thanks to Sr. Soph):
A federal prosecutor told a judge on Tuesday that a man who traveled to Pakistan in 2008 to attend a Qaeda training camp conspired to kill American service members in Afghanistan.The prosecutor, Assistant United States Attorney James P. Loonam, said his office expected to seek additional charges against the man, Adis Medunjanin, 25, a Queens College graduate, and might consolidate his case with that of a shuttle bus driver, Najibullah Zazi, 24, who prosecutors say also attended the camp and was charged last year in a bomb plot.
Mr. Loonam made the comments during a hearing in federal court in Brooklyn in the case of Mr. Medunjanin, who was charged in a two-count indictment unsealed Jan. 9 with conspiring to commit murder in a foreign country and with receiving military-type training from Al Qaeda.
The bare-bones two-page indictment had provided almost no details about the alleged conspiracy, and while Mr. Loonam's comments in court were far from expansive, they constituted the most detailed description to date of the alleged plot.
"In August 2008, the defendant traveled with others from the United States to Pakistan, with the intent of killing U.S. service members in Afghanistan," Mr. Loonam told the judge in the case, Raymond J. Dearie of Federal District Court in Brooklyn....
Muslim thugs. What else can one expect from the followers of Mohammad the pedophile, murderer and rapist, prophet of Islam.
A college student and a bus driver form a common bond and agenda ... the diversity lobby must be weeping in joy ... mission accomplished!
B-b-but its all down to poverty. Thats why we've got doctors, engineers, US Army Majors, students and those from well-to-do backgrounds carrying out Jihad and murdering or plotting to murder infidels.

You are so right Spirit
One of the 7/7 London bombers:-
A YOUNG suicide bomber who died in the 7/7 outrage had a £121,000 fortune, ($180,000?)
Chip shop worker Shehzad Tanweer's estate has staggered security chiefs.
And the origins of the evil 22-year-old's riches remain a MYSTERY. (he dropped out of a sports degree and worked part-time in his father's fish and chip shop). Actually I think I could probably advance a theory of where his money came from - fish and chip shops are CASH businesses!!
Worse than that the poor soul could only afford a Mercedes SLK - a new one. Yeah must have been the poverty!!
Why these sideways glances into the truth? Robert's right that, of course, his status as a college graduate is peripheral and hardly the salient point.
But the paper seems to be doing the same thing Europe does. "Youths", etc. They know that some people (!) are starting to realize (!) that it's not poverty, stupid. So they make a big show about saying he's a college graduate.
The guy that just shot people in Virginia, for example, they know his name, but do you think subsequent articles will refer to him as a "high school graduate" or "college graduate"? It's code, in my opinion.
It's not his fault. He's an impressionable youth who had the misfortune of falling in with the wrong crowd, the Prophet.
If I even think a taxi driver is muslim I won't get in. I know that in the eyes of Obama and Holder that makes me worse than any terrorist but I can live with it. As a matter of fact I just might live because of it.

Where did a funeral home owner get the money to purchase a building in Queens then put it in the name of his children and use it as bail money after he tipped off a nest of jihadists insects that the FBI was after them? For Al-Qaeda but the Feds just took the house as surety without looking at its history.

These are the records on Afzali, the Imam who tipped off the scum that were going to bomb a crowded NYC Subway train. He should not be out on bail. Are there any discrepancies?
Adis Medujanin is one of those" poor" Bosnian moslems that Clinton had brought over to the USA because the Serbs and Croats fought back when confronted with the islamic government espoused by Ilia Izbebegovic.
Oh, yeah! And what GRATITUDE he shows his benefactors??? He is a cockroach and his kind will try to bring this country down to the lowest level EXACTLY like the moslem parts of Bosnia. The jerk probably got a FREE college education too .
I hear people in the media say that the moslems of Bosnia in the 1980's and 90's were just like Europeans, Serbs and Croats and that they were secular.
NO!! They were NOT!!! And They are NOT now.
Long ago when I was one of those naive do gooders...
When most of those Bosnians came to the USA they did not know how a toilet worked ,what a dishwasher was ( they were AFRAID of IT), they did not like to bathe OR WORK and were even scared of an washer and dryer!!! The women were strange and did NOT want to take ANY job and just wanted to sit on their backsides and collect WELFARE. The men wanted the same thing except they were looking for a COFFEE HOUSE they could smoke in. They somehow always had money for the smokes!!
I have meet HUNDREDS of them right off the airplane. I left my position with a re-settlement agency shortly after they were settled here after I came face to face with the absolutely meanest,dirtest, ignorant, anti-semitic people I ever met in over 25 years of working with refugees.
At a multi-ethnic apartment complex, one Bosnian man with a LARGE family of several adults and about 8 kids, threatened to push me down the stairs and said he would mess up my car( BY GOLLY IT WAS A NEW CAR TOO)after I mentioned I had to go downstairs to a Croatian/Serbian family to deliver clothes and so forth for their new baby.
Alas, OLD naive me.
I got out there so fast I must have kicked up the dust!! I never went back to that place. Had one of the biggest men take the things to the Croat/Serbian family and suggested that the agency move them to another complex due to the Bosnians.
I have never helped another refugee who is NOT a Christian or a Buddist since and I NEVER WILL AGAIN LIFT A FINGER FOR ANY MOSLEM LOUT.
To be fair....I have never met any Somalis....I hear their filth is reknown. And their violence too.
