CBN Exclusive: Five Muslim Soldiers Arrested at Fort Jackson in South Carolina
CBN ^ | 2/18/10 | Erick Stakelbeck
CBN News has learned exclusively that five Muslim soldiers at Fort Jackson in South Carolina were arrested just before Christmas and are in custody. The five men were part of the Arabic Translation program at the base.
The men are suspected of trying to poison the food supply at Fort Jackson.
A source with intimate knowledge of the investigation, which is ongoing, told CBN News investigators suspect the “Fort Jackson Five” may have been in contact with the group of five Washington, DC area Muslims that traveled to Pakistan to wage jihad against U.S. troops in December. That group was arrested by Pakistani authorities, also just before Christmas.

As far as FR is concerned, I only noticed CBN as the EXCLUSIVE source. I wondered at the time about their credibility getting a story and Fox not getting it. Now we see why.
