Overnite, two men arrested while sleeping in their car at a reststop in MD. John Mohammed aka John Williams and his stepson Lee Malvo. Mohammad is thought to be the likely shooter.
Thanks that is very interesting.
I live in the OKC metro area
Thanks that is very interesting.
Case could have been solved long ago with composite released of Burgandy Chevy Caprice during the first shootings. IMO.....Took 2 hours to find the caprice after the info got out took public.
Evidently the Burgundy Chevy Caprice has been looked for Since the first shootings...and was on the Radar all along..***Where were the graphic composites of burgundy Caprice?***

FLIT'S SNIPER PREDICTION
At present, the authorities in D.C. are looking for a white cube van, a white panel van, and a burgundy Chevy Caprice. My money's on the Caprice. White vans, because it's the most common delivery truck colour, are near-ubiquitous on city highways. Drive the four-lanes around Toronto, and there's rarely a five minute stretch where something white and van-like isn't speeding away from you in some direction. No, wait, I'll make another prediction. The engagement range of the sniper, when all is said and done, will be found to vary between 75-200m. Nothing farther. (For reference, Lee Oswald hit Jack Kennedy with his final shot at 80m.) All this talk about a "sniper subculture" (which anyone who's played first-person shooter computer games in the last three years must just find unfathomable) and weapons that are accurate past 400m will only obscure the fact that this guy is killing with a cheap, military-grade semi-auto .223 with a scope, from moderate range.
What you have posted is my characterization of the factual summary in the London newspaper and the follow on US article in which, in response to the allegation in the London paper that an Al Queda training operation was being operated at Camp Zero, the Zero operators said that the location was being used by some non-profit organization for these other purposes and the use had long since terminated.
No one has denied that Muhammad was physically present at the location during the period he was in Alabama; and the Camp Zero denial that they were running an Al Queda training operation was directed to a denial of their responsibility for acts being conducted at the location on the grounds that some other entity was the active operator during the period in question. The operators attempt to characterize "Camp Zero" as their activities on the location leaving open the inference that other acts being conducted by other entities on the property, specifically Al Queda training, were not part of Camp Zero.
The London newspaper article is posted earlier on this thread. The local paper article was posted on FR shortly after the original posting of the overseas source.
The next post, #1249, is a fair summary of some of the reports regarding the camp. Alabama authorities want to deny responsibility for the possibility that Al Queda training was conducted there however independent confirmation that such training in fact took place is seen in London.
We are less concerned about looking into target practice and self defense training inside the US because we are prepared to take the risk of such training activities for improper purposes in order to preserve the right of US Citizens to receive such training for domestic protection purposes.
Our complaint is that when you have the Moslems declaring war on us, we need to treat all of their domestic US activities as subject to inquiry--to the extent conducted by non-citizen aliens, illegals should be deported, and legals should be required to maintain a current paper record regarding the legality of their presence and the propriety of their domestic US activities.
It must be a language comprehension issue.
Yes. There's more to this.
