NYC Jihadist Caught in UK
This hasn't gotten much play:
Outside of the Burg, you mean ...
A young man who was raised in Queens and earned a degree from Brooklyn College faced a London court yesterday on shocking charges that he conspired to smuggle military gear and money to al Qaeda terrorists fighting the United States in Afghanistan.

Syed "Fahad" Hashmi, 26, who was indicted in Manhattan last month, said he would fight extradition to the United States. He is wanted here for moving funds and military equipment to the notorious terror camps in South Wazirisrtan, Pakistan, between January 2004 and May 2006.

Hashmi allegedly conspired with Queens computer programmer Muhammad Junaid Babar, who was arrested in 2004 after he was busted delivering night-vision goggles, sleeping bags, waterproof socks and ponchos to training camps in the same area in Pakistan.
