BREAKING NEWS: Muslim Ex-Navy member arrested on terror charges
Hassan Abujihaad, 31, was arrested today in Phoenix on federal charges of terrorism and espionage. The former U.S. Navy sailor went by the name Paul Hall. The federal complaint alleges that he gave classified information about Navy battle group movements to a London-based group that supported Islamic terrorists including Al-Qaeda. The Navy battle group was engaged in anti-terror operations.
Federal prosecutors say Abujihaad was stationed on the U.S.S. Benfold in the Middle East which was one of the ships thatÂ’s movement was revealed.
Emails by Abujihaad allegedly praised Osama bin Laden and the 2000 attack on the U.S.S. Cole and said such tactics were working and taking their toll.
