"
After graduating from A&T in December 1986, Mohammed appears to have headed for Pakistan to join an elder brother in Peshawar, the Pakistani border town that served as headquarters for the mujahedeen."
So they don't know. And by what proof is he "uncle" to Ramzi Yousef? No mention of the theory that the real KSM is gone -- erased by the Iraqis along with his immediate family in Kuwait during the 1990 war, and replaced by an Iraqi agent.

"They come from relatively affluent backgrounds," Yeah but Bill Clinton and other Leftists insist that terrorism stems from poverty.

[Mohammad was described as a mullah,]
"...a Muslim who prayed five times a day and adhered strictly to the Quran's prohibition against alcohol, adultery and other vices"(I missed part of the quote when copying it and can't find it again)
Perhaps the description of him is mistaken...he sure liked hookers and bars too.

I don't want to get on a tangent, but is it possible that these guys have complexes from American women.
I wonder how many times this Ron-Jeremy-lookalike (and probaby wannabe) was repelled by American women?
I have always heard about "hell hath no fury...", but Sheesh, I thought that applied to women only.
...and, no, ladies, I am not blaming this on you or anything like that

Interesting that colleges which indoctrinate students into hating America and freedom and believing in socialism could wonder how their school could produce a full-fledged terrorist.

Mohammed's years in America are part of a striking pattern among the terrorists of al-Qaida: Many have lived in the Western societies they now despise. "They come from relatively affluent backgrounds," says John Calvert, a historian at Creighton University in Omaha who studies Islamist ideology. "They're well-educated. They're fluent in a Western language. But there's something about Western politics, Western culture, that makes them uneasy."
How is that any different than many Western leftists? One could safely say that the terrorist leaders are the spawn of our leftist educational system, who's teachings are reinforced by our own leftists hatred for America.

It might be "relatively affluent" backgrounds to us, but in their home countries, these kids were rich. They were big fish in a small pond. They come to the US, ( in the South no less)and their "affluence" evaporates, then they run into racial prejudice. To add insult to injury, the Mullah stories are not true and instructors who could be teaching the benefits of the bill of rights, teach a watered down version of anti-Americanism. We reap what we sow.

Three accused in terror activity were educated in North Carolina Let's not forget our homegrown terrorists,either. Jesse Jackson went to school in Greensboro.

Thanks for this post. I have been waiting for some news outlet to shed some light on the terrorist/NC angle.

I find these articles humorous. People are so suprised when they really understand that someone truly wants to kill them. I remember the time I first had that realization well, the second time equally, and the third time most of all. After the third time the understanding sticks with me even to this day. I figure it is the same for most people, we are all slow learners.
As far as the motivation people disposed to violence, I understand them fine.

Al-Najjar is the brother-in-law of Sami Al-Arian,
a University of South Florida professor
who was indicted last month
for allegedly running the American arm of a group
called Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
N.C. A&T also graduated Mazen Al-Najjar,
who spent more than 3 1/2 years in jail
on secret evidence linking him to terrorists.
He was deported last August to an undisclosed Arab country.
The US spent 6 months trying to deport him.
They first tried the Gulf states
which would not accept him.
Finally he was flown in a US government plane to Lebanon.
Since then he has moved on to Iran.
Al-Najjar, deported from the U.S. in August on immigration charges,
was not among those charged last month.
No, of course not,
because he very conveniently had been deported.
Someone in Justice wanted him out of the country.
He was named as an unindicted co-conspirator.
