Authorities executed a search warrant at a Temple Terrace home Saturday in connection with the arrest of two USF students earlier this week.The search took place at 12402 Pampas Place in Temple Terrace. Multiple agencies were at the scene, including the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, the FBI, ATF, Secret Service and Immigration and Customs Enforcement

I’m not sure if this was posted previously. Looks like the case of the 2 USF students arrested last week in South Carolina may be leading somewhere.

USF...wasn’t that the school that had the jihadi professor?

I think so. Sami Al Arian taught at USF

I installed a lot of “dish network” at apartments near to USF ,,, lots of people there wanted Al Jazeera TV .. most of them had pirate installations which would be untraceable but after pirating Dish became more difficult about 2 years ago I’m sure many of them began subscribing ,,, I sure hope our FBI has someone assigned to watching anyone who would sub to that trash... especially in the hotbed areas ,, Brooklyn , LI , Tampa , the Detroit suburbs etc.

"Records show the owner of that house is Sameeh Hammoudeh, a co-defendant in the trial of Sami Al-Arian. Al-Arian is the former USF professor who was acquitted on most charges of funding terror-related organizations. He pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to provide services to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

"Investigators also searched a car Saturday that records showed is registered to Noor Salhab's son, Ghassan Salhab. Neighbors say he and two other men are the current residents of the house that was raided."

"FOX 13 did find a connection between the men arrested in South Carolina, and the men who live in raided house. Back in July, Tampa police cited Mohamed and another man named Ahmad Ishtay for shooting squirrels in a park. Ishtay confirmed to a FOX 13 reporter that he is one of Ghassan Salhab's roommates. He said in published reports that Mohamed and Megahed, the arrested USF students, sometimes came over."

Temple Terrace is a rather upscale planned community, not far from where I live. Big on golf courses and country clubs. It was named after a new hybrid orange (the Temple orange) developed prior to the establishment of the community (1920). It's also home to a private Christian college.

Terrorists, cell members, traitorous professors and various enablers certainly can live high off the armadillo in sunny Florida.

P.S.......Temple Terrace is bounded by Tampa to the east.
