Different Hijazi than we thought apparently at first...But a juicy Buffalo link to the Lackawanna 6.

Ping. Is it getting clearer or murkier. But jihadis are dying at a regular clip.

This would be confusing enough if these people had only one name each.
As I understand it, Ahmed Hijazi = Kamal Derwish,
and this is not the same Hijazi as the California State Raed Hijazi.
However Raed Hijazi did know Nabil al-Marabh,
who, in turn, was in contact with al-Qaeda in Buffalo,
and, thus, probably knew Ahmed Hijazi,
and may even have informed on the Buffalo Yemeni 7
in order to secure his release.

Have I got that all straight now??

He was fluent in English and Hebrew, ...

Odd combination for one of Saudi descent. Surely he spoke Arabic.

If nothing else, the Lackawanna case has made it clear to any native born or naturalized terrorist wannabees that any interest in that lifestyle will be noted by the acronym agencies and have an immense detrimental effect on their lives.

Having said that, nothing that these Lackawanna six or seven has done in any way has the impact that the Saudi money perverting mosques, universities, textbook publishing and the Executive Branch of our government has had.

Let's be very clear about that.
