In 1999, Ayman embarked on an anthrax weaponization project codenamed Curdled Milk (Whey).

Damn, I’m good.

Book ‘em, Ed. (Needham, not Lake)

Here is a column last week (special to the Washington Post) by the author of Jihad Next Door on Elbaneh and the prosecution. Now someone should ask Dina what the whey processing was like at Sorrento.

“Officials both inside and outside the FBI told me that if they were handling the Lackawanna case today, they would do it differently: They would have allowed the situation to play itself out, and they would have waited longer to see what kind of intelligence they might have gleaned from the group. But the political environment in 2002 required a heavier hand, and decisions about suspected terrorists still had a tang of vengeance.”

Comment: Ah, yes, the usual coded reference I see everywhere. “Tang” as in powder. ;)

“American justice has started walking back from such extremes. Consider some of the recent so-called homegrown terrorism cases. The Muslim men accused of planning an attack on Fort Dix, N.J., were arrested after a 15-month investigation during which the FBI had been watching the six New Jersey residents around the clock. The decision to arrest them came only when they were about to purchase weapons from an undercover FBI agent. The FBI allowed the plot to unspool in hopes of discovering an overseas connection or al-Qaida link.

One episode at that guesthouse in Afghanistan offers a glimpse of what is at stake. At one point, Sahim Alwan, the spooked young American, took one of his Lackawanna friends aside, according to legal documents. “This stuff isn’t right,” he whispered. “Do you want to stay?”

His friend Jaber Elbaneh looked surprised. “I want to be a martyr,” he replied bluntly. “I want to die.” Alwan returned to Lackawanna weeks later. Elbaneh is still at large in Yemen — and on the FBI’s list of most wanted terrorists.”
