Federal prosecutors have filed additional charges against Adnan Mirza, one of the four Muslim students accused of preparing to join the Taliban to fight U.S.-led forces overseas. Mirza, 30, was accused of planning to engage in "battlefield jihad" in the Middle East and financially supporting the terrorism group.
Here on a student visa, the Pakistani originally was charged in a four-count indictment with Kobie Williams, a U.S. citizen attending the University of Houston-Downtown. Williams, 34, pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge and awaits sentencing.
The new 13-count indictment names Mirza alone and more completely outlines the allegations against him.
The charges include 10 firearm possession offenses, the alleged purchase of ammunition at a gun show for use during a paramilitary exercise and two conspiracy counts related to the training and financial support. He is accused of failing to secure a work visa before starting a job and overstaying his visa. The indictment also alleges that $1,000 earmarked for Taliban fighters and their families passed through Mirza's hands.
Mirza, who had been studying biomedical technology at Houston Community College before his arrest last November, engaged in firearms training eight times at Houston-area campsites and shooting ranges from May 2005 through June 2006, the indictment alleges.

WTF? That's a new one on me. I guess the three gun shooters better learn what's up. :(
Why don’t I see it on the “fair” CNN media?
Ha! You're fortunate you've seen it in the Houston Chronicle.
Be very much afraid. Afraid because our PC government has no intention to proactively pursue Muslim terrorism at home, but instead keeps its citizens brainwashed by continually proclaiming that Islam is a ROP.

The ACLU must be in a pickle. On one hand they have an enemy of America they would like to defend. On the other hand, there is this list of charges that the NRA and Second Amendment supports would think are unlawfull. The ACLU won't protect t he Second Amendment.
Well, at least our PC government did pursue these guys, and anyone who believes in the ROP BS also believes that Mrs. Clinton will not raise taxes. I wish that everyone would just shut up about the ROP because it simply isn’t true, and everyone on the planet knows that. I hate it when they look you in the eye and lie.
After the trial and conviction of Mirza and the others, the sentence, beside a LOOOOONG sting in federal prison, should be a swift kick out or the country and a permanent banishment form ever reentering for any reason.
As for Kobie Williams, an equally long stretch in a federal prison then strip him of his US Citizenship and boot him out of the country with a permanent banishment from ever reentering for any reason.
Swift kick out and permanent banishment works for me. See how he likes living again in that earthly paradise, Pakistan. Also, if he gets caught trying to re-enter, back to prison for life.
It sounds like muslim “STUDENTS” 30 YEARS OF AGE!!!!!! Students my foot!
