SNIPPET: “Najibullah Zazi, 24, had contacts through a middleman with Mustafa Abu al-Yazid, the terror leader who earlier this year said he would use nukes on America if he could only get his hands on some.
Al-Yazid is an Egyptian who has worked closely with Osama bin Laden, Al Qaeda’s fugitive leader.”
SNIPPET: “Prosecutors say Zazi admitted when he was arrested last month that he “received instructions from Al Qaeda operatives on subjects such as weapons and explosives” during a trip to Pakistan in 2008.”
SNIPPET: “The feds say they found nine pages of handwritten bomb-making instructions in Zazi’s e-mail. The directions to make explosives of hydrogen peroxide and flour are similar to the bombs used by terrorists to bomb the London subway in 2005, killing 52 people.
Zazi and his friends bought up “unusual quantities of hydrogen and acetone products,” according to court papers. The store of chemicals has not been found.”
