UPDATE:
USF Terror Suspect Had Two Passports, Different Names
9/16/07
By Annie Jacobsen in category The Al-Qaeda Threat

The St. Petersburg Times offers new details on University of South Florida terror suspects Ahmed Mohamed and Youssef Megahed (Egyptian transliteration: “Mujahid”).

In addition to providing details about the explosives, ammunition, fuses, gasoline, bomb making instructions and martyr-referencing video that the pair were carrying when they were pulled over by police for speeding, the Times provides alarming details about Megahed’s travel documents. These details include:

~Megahed had two different passports at his house: one with his photograph and name and a second passport with his photograph and a different name.
~On July 29th, one week before being arrested, Megahed and his brother went to Sears and had additional passport-sized photographs taken of themselves.
~Megahed was denied naturalization in March of 2006 because he’d not spent the requisite calendar days in the United States. During a five-year period, from 1998-2003, Megahed spent 1,600 of those days in Egypt (out of a total of 1,825 days).
~Authorities cited Megahed’s travels to Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, and Canada to support their argument that he’s a flight risk.

“Experts Say Explosives In Car Trunk Were Unlikely To Harm Naval Station”
By ELAINE SILVESTRINI The Tampa Tribune

Published: Sep 26, 2007

TAMPA -

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “One tracker disagrees with Turley, saying that YouTube is a popular site among jihadists.

“There is nothing at all ‘strange’ about jihadist use of YouTube,” said A. Aaron Weisburd, founder of the jihadi tracking Web site Internet Haganah and director of the Society for Internet Research, a nonprofit counterterrorism research organization. “It suits their purposes quite well.””
