All three terrorists [Nuradin Abdi , Iyman Faris, AND Christopher Paul] worshiped and socialized at a small mosque in Columbus, Ohio, and, according to David B. Smith, an attorney for Faris, were part of a larger group of jihadists and extremists who frequented the mosque.
The FBI now is investigating reports of links to that same mosque by Muslim-convert Abdulhakim Muhammad who allegedly shot and killed one soldier Monday and critically wounded another in a drive-by attack on a Little Rock, Ark., recruiting station, ABC News has learned.
According to law enforcement sources, they have received reports that Muhammad appears to have attended the mosque during a period from 2006 to 2007 when evidence indicates he resided in Columbus. It is unclear what, if any, links he had to the individuals already convicted.

I think Mr. Paul was the one who taught martial arts at the mosque [a mosque which the press is curiously reluctant to name] ... there does seem to be a time period they could have been in contact...

APRIL 11, 2007 WED : (OHIO : PAUL KENYATA LAWS aka ABDULMALEK KENYATTA aka CHRISTOPHER PAUL IS ARRESTED OUTSIDE IHS APARTMENT IN COLUMBUS----See EUROPEAN TOURIST TRAP PLOTS, MIL BASE PLOTS) Paul, who was arrested Wednesday outside his apartment, is charged with providing material support to terrorists, conspiracy to provide support to terrorists and conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction, which carries the most serious penalty of up to life in prison....
...The indictment says Paul traveled to Germany about April 1999 to train co-conspirators to use explosives to attack European and U.S. targets, including government buildings and vacation spots frequented by American tourists. It does not name specific resorts or buildings that might have been targeted, but gives U.S. embassies, military bases and consular premises in Europe as examples.
Paul later sent a wire transfer of $1,760 from a financial institution in the U.S. to an alleged co-conspirator in Germany, prosecutors allege.
A fax machine in his home contained names, phone numbers and contact information for key al-Qaida leadership and associates, according to the indictment, issued Wednesday.
Paul also is accused of storing material at his father’s house in Columbus, including a book on improvised land mines, money from countries in the Middle East and a letter to his parents explaining that he would be “on the front lines,” according to the indictment.
...Paul is married to a woman named in the indictment as F. Bashir, investigators said. Authorities seized a letter from Paul’s apartment that he sent to Bashir about raising “little mujahideen,” or holy warriors.
Paul is linked to Nuradin Abdi, another man charged in a terror investigation, according to court records. Abdi, accused of plotting to blow up a Columbus-area shopping mall, is awaiting trial. A laser range finder and a night vision scope seized from Paul’s residence are listed among items that the government intends to use as evidence in Abdi’s case, court records show.
Abdi also listed Paul as a personal reference on a government employment application, records show.
