CHESAPEAKE, Virginia (CNN) -- Several dozen jailhouse sketches by accused sniper Lee Boyd Malvo -- some depicting police in rifle crosshairs and others containing references to a holy war -- have been entered as evidence by defense attorneys, who say they are evidence of his indoctrination by an accomplice.

This Washington Post article, March 16, 2003, reprinted on a Reggae Lyric site has a lot more information about the contents of Malvos drawings.  The Islamic angle seems to be played down .  Hobbes, Locke, Socrates, Jefferson, and Bob Marley could also be to blame.

LayoutGuru, didn't you have a document with a lot of math? There are drawings in here (linked) with some sort of number codes.

Here is a zip file (warning: 2 MB download) containing two Word documents that you should find interesting even if you can't read the Arabic.
http://www.soulsurvivors.net/Public/twoDocs.ZIP

The following video (1.6 MB download) shows a disturbing image (about 2:49 into the video) of G.W. and T.B.'s heads super-imposed over the bodies of Usay/Qusay (sp?) with the text "Coming Soon". I downloaded it from a Jihadist website last month and didn't notice this brief scene until watching it again tonight:

Each malvo drawing has an area blootted by a white rectangle. Any ideas what could be there?

something with a remarkable similarity to the text on the anthrax notes?

Or else the names of people not yet known.

Who better than Moose, the commander of a security unit at Andrews Air Force Base?

? I missed that one... when was he in security at Andrews? Isn't Andrews the base that the Clintons blocked the GOP congressman from entering during the Elian thing?

I say that, because he has the same habit of doubling and tripling the ink on letters as the anthrax letter-writer does and there is no explicable reason- the pen is working fine and letters don't need to be re-inked. Emphasis? Code? Strange.

Malvo also uses noticably different writing styles, often on the same drawing.

I have to wonder if their financial source could also give them more than just money to slip into the states.

Is there any known connection to these two and a guy named Nizar Trablisi?

Trablisi was involved in a diamond heist for al Qaeda which provided them with a lot of cash. Trablisi also came out with the assertion that al Qaeda trained 3-man sniper teams. Trablisi was caught in Europe trying to plot attacks on the US embassy in Paris and the Feds apparently talked with him during the sniper investigation.

Others have also brought up the Antigua connection and the Caymans connection. Has anyone yet recalled the story of the three 'Afghans' who showed up in the Cayman Islands with $2 million trying to put it into a Caymans bank? They were arrested and detained- they claimed to have 'gotten off a ship from Turkey and swam ashore," but it was determined they had instead gotten off a plane from Havana.

Didn't J A Muhammad say he was going to the Caymans on a trip to do with purchasing land?

He was in command of a reserve security unit at Andrews at the time of the sniper shootings. I believe he had been in that position for some time. (He was later activated, and as far as I know still has that reserve position.)

Yes, Andrews is the same base Elian was at. (I know the base because I used to pull reserve duty there.)

Speaking of numbers and codes... this is worth a look for those who have not yet seen it:

Are the snipers Part of the "Five Percent Nation?"

This group has a code made up of numbers which signify certain phrases- presumably passages in their pamphlets they hand out in urban areas. There is also a similar code using letters.

The group calls themselves Muslim but their ideology bears little if any comparison.

Note that Muhammad was known to pass out pamphlets when he hung out at the homeless shelter.

Note also Malvo's sketch notes, featuring apparently irrelevent numbers, as well as his text notes which feature occasional letters which are darkened by extra scribbling.

If someone has copies of said pamphlets, it may be possible to match phrases in them to some of his rambling code. Or, he may be making his own code based on the same idea.

Military officials said they could not describe the character of his discharge but noted he did go on to serve in a National Guard unit for about one more year. link from Freeper M0sby

JUNE 2001 : (SEATTLE CELL CASE : SEMI OSMAN IS LISTED AS A PERMANENT LEGAL RESIDENT OF THE US) By June 2001, when he joined the Naval Reserve, he was listed as a permanent legal resident of the United States. The military services allow noncitizens to enlist. The active-duty Navy has 16,248 noncitizen members. Noncitizens are not allowed to hold certain ratings, including those that require security clearances. Statistics on how many noncitizens are in the Naval Reserve were not available. - "AL QAIDA IN THE RANKS?

JUNE 28, 2001 : (WA : SEATTLE CELL CASE : SEMI OSMAN ENLISTS IN NAVAL RESERVES, ATTENDS TRAINING EXCERCISE AT FT LEWIS) Osman enlisted in the Naval Reserve on June 28, 2001, under the Non-Prior Service Accession Course, a Tacoma Reserve Center spokesman said. Until his arrest, Osman participated in monthly drills at the Tacoma drill center as a member of Supply Support Battalion One, Company F, a fueling unit. “According to his supervisors, he was just like all our new affiliates – eager to learn the job and get qualified in his position,” said Cmdr. John Croce, a spokesman for Navy Supply Support Battalion One. As a new Reserve member, Osman spent the bulk of his weekend duty training in Tacoma, though he also attended one field training exercise at Fort Lewis, Wash., Croce said. “He didn’t actually have access to fuel,” Croce said. “It was an exercise in setting up equipment like a field fuel depot.” But even that kind of observation could have been valuable to a terrorist organization, said Larry C. Johnson, a former deputy director in the State Department’s Office of Counterterrorism. A terrorist sympathizer holding a relatively benign job in the Navy could gather plenty of intelligence useful for a terrorist attack, he said. The successful October 2000 terrorist attack on the destroyer Cole, in the port of Aden, Yemen, probably was accomplished with information about fueling times and procedures, Johnson said. Getting a terrorist or sympathizer into the U.S. military is “an intelligence bonanza,” he said. “They’ll know what type of fuel is being used, what the procedures are.” Such an individual also would have access to official identification and uniforms, Johnson said. “If the guy has any type of ties whatsoever, it’s very serious. Military ID could be obtained and copied,” he said. “With access to uniforms, someone could appear to be something they’re not.” - "AL QAIDA IN THE RANKS?

Fremou said people would come in and out of the house last year, around September, [2001] at all times of the night. However, Fremou said they weren't loud and she didn't necessarily suspect anything suspicious happening there.
