| Khawaja considering creating terror camp in Canada: witness |
| 2008-06-26 |
| The Crown's star witness in the terror trial of Momin Khawaja wrapped up his evidence Wednesday by telling Ontario Superior Court that the former software developer once considered establishing a jihadi training camp in Canada. Mohammed Junaid Babar said Mr. Khawaja suggested to him in 2003 that 'the brothers' in the United Kingdom could send him money to establish a training camp in this country. 'He mentioned . . . that there was a lot of land around in Canada and that it was very cheap,' Babar testified. The idea was never hatched and Mr. Khawaja -- who has pleaded not guilty to seven terrorism-related charges in connection with an alleged plot to bomb sites in and around London, England -- did not specify where in Canada the training camp might be located. |

| #3 And then there was the Buffalo terror connection. Face it, no muslims no terror. The door to a country works both ways. |

| #1 Within easy driving distance of Toronto, no doubt, so that 'the brothers' wouldn't be too inconvenienced by having to actually go somewhere. My choice for them would have been in Northern Manitoba so they could experience 'jihad' as practiced by mosquitos and black flies. |
