University of Idaho student on trial for supporting terrorism

Student on trial for alleged terror promotion
Tuesday, April 13, 2004 Posted: 4:44 PM EDT (2044 GMT)

BOISE, Idaho (AP) -- A University of Idaho graduate student went on trial Tuesday on charges he supported terrorism by running Web sites that recruited militants and raised money for groups promoting violence against the United States.

Sami Omar Al-Hussayen, a Saudi national working on his computer science doctoral degree, is charged with three counts of aiding terrorism and additional counts of visa fraud and making false statements.

U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge began questioning potential jurors Tuesday, and expected to have a panel seated by the end of the day.
Al-Hussayen is accused of helping to run Web sites that supported the militant Palestinian organization Hamas and other groups allegedly promoting terrorism.

Federal prosecutors say he provided "material support" to terrorists, a crime that was expanded under the Patroit Act -- the federal terrorism law passed after September 11 -- to include "expert advice or assistance."

Rest of story

National media geeks are coming to Boise! Here's my chance to go national! :clap:

If I manage I'll plug the website. Shameless marketing at it's best

You should have mentioned the part about running bank accounts to funnel cash to terrorists. I couldn't figure out why he had a total of 340 years worth of jail time in charges brought against him for setting up a web site.

Wasn't that part of the link? I admit I didn't read it all that carefully since it's all old news around here. I'd forgotten about the running money bit.

This is like a contradiction....

Idahoians in general are the least likely to support terrorist........cept maybe the few idiotic earth firsters that kill innocent people each year, but thats a small minority that generally are not from idaho...

Yup, the problem is that most can't seem to catch on to tapping binary on a tin can with a string tied to it. ;)

I knew it!

Idaho have terrorist training camps.

Idaho is now a part of the "axis of evil" and we must invade and replace the goverment there as soon as possible.


The guy sent a videotape of him being In Utah so its possible that Utah also has terrorist training camps.
