In addition, this area is under so much scrutiny I can't get my little 25-foot sailboat within a hundred yards of any critical structure without risking some .50 caliber thru-hulls being opened up for me.
Saudi Academy Disputes Radical Reputation (5/18/05)
ALEXANDRIA, Va. May 18, 2005 — The Islamic Saudi Academy is seen by some as a dangerous outpost of militant Islam on the outskirts of the nation's capital. And as evidence, they point to the school's 1999 valedictorian, who is charged with joining al-Qaida and plotting to assassinate President Bush....
Two other people connected to the academy have turned up in terrorism-related cases: A federal indictment in Chicago last year named a former treasurer of the school, Ismael Selim Elbarasse, as a high-ranking official of the militant group Hamas, though Elbarasse was not charged with a crime. Mohamed Osman Idris, an ISA graduate, pleaded guilty in 2002 to lying on a passport application after an investigation into whether he was supporting Hamas.
============
Mentioned in the following Dept. of Justice press release:
CHICAGO AND WASHINGTON, D.C., AREA MEN AMONG THREE INDICTED IN RACKETEERING CONSPIRACY IN U.S. TO FINANCE HAMAS TERROR ABROAD
Fugitive Hamas Official In Syria Among Those Charged....
The alleged high-ranking Hamas leaders named in the indictment as co-conspirators are: Khalid Mish’al, Abdel Aziz Al-Rantisi (deceased), Imad Al-Alami, Mohammed Qassem Sawalha, Adel Ahmed Awadallah (deceased), Salah Al-Arouri, Sheik Jamil Hamami, Hassan Salameh, Yihye Ayash, and Ismael Selim Elbarasse.
Thanks SlowBoat for letting us know the difference. I don't like the concentrated attention around this area by these questionable Islamic types.

Good to know, Slowboat.
I just looked at some photos of the bridge and the tunnel as I've never been to the area.

The family name Artavazd Janshyan has a history in Armenian politics.
I have not been able to make a Positive ID of the individuals involved in the traffic stop of the Georgetown incident, so these may be different people entirely.
Very possible these individuals were actually ME's with false ID's.

I see, once again, we have the 'nationality' of the car but not the perps!
I don't understand why they are searching for them when they were stopped the officers found the suspicious items in the car. Did they let them go?
The car was traveling about 82 mph in a 60-mph zone, Waites said.
The driver of the vehicle was identified as Artavazd Janshyan, Waites said. The passenger in the car was identified as Hovhannes Poghosyan.After searching the car, investigators found a video camera, a digital camera, electronic wires, several VHS tapes with foreign markings and a large laminated picture of the Chesapeake Bay Tunnel, Waites said.
Well, that makes the guys with pictures etc. even more interesting. I'm still wondering why they weren't held? Are we reverting to pre-9-11 thinking again?
Going to read that now.
I like the (deceased) part of that list!
On various sites, most believed the skyline was NY; some did speculate that it could be Seattle if I recall correctly.
I see NYC with downtown on the right working its way uptown to the left. Just MO.
Greenbelt...Glendale......as I read that article snippet it all seemed so familiar.
But where...why was it familiar? Then -- finally -- I thought, oh, the anthrax letters from the "Greendale School."
I hate when that happens, when you can't remember why something is so familiar. But such relief when we finally do remember!
What an enchanting little ditty that is. Those terrorists are such charmers.
Thanks, Ghostship.
Very interesting.

Brilliant, just brilliant.
LOL. So true.

Rumsfeld is having a press conference. Under the Fox News Alert the big banner read:
Rumsfeld says that Able Danger briefed the 9/11 Commission.
Did anyone hear his remarks on this matter; all I've seen is the banner.
