Up to 2,000 people have left the United States over the past 20 years to fight in Islamic militant groups around the world, according to the weekly U.S. News & World Report magazine.
The figure includes foreign-born U.S. permanent residents, as well as U.S. citizens, according to the magazine, which bases its information on interviews with past and present U.S. and foreign intelligence officials, Islamic militants, and court documents.

At least they left the country. Now if we can clean up the pathetic INS maybe we can keep them from coming back.

A Pakistani intelligence source told U.S. News that up to 400 U.S. recruits were given military training in Pakistani and Afghan jihad camps since 1989. Pakistan, Pakistan, Pakistan. We know they HAVE BEEN the training Hq. The question is: Is it continuing?
With a population of about 140 million, over 95% Muslim, they can easily operate. In fact isn't the latest idea, that bin Laden is somewhere there (if still alive)?

Pakistan, Pakistan, Pakistan. As the Indian Foriegn Minster stated, Pakistan IS the epicenter of international terrorism. It will take a long drawn-out effort, if not a fight, to change that!
