| Lebanese-born Swede
charged with plot to set up terror camp in Oregon NEW YORK - A Lebanese-born Swede is charged in New York in a plot to set up a terrorist training camp in Oregon. A criminal complaint against Oussama Kassir was unsealed yesterday in a U.S. District court in New York. The complaint alleges that Kassir and others conspired to
establish a training camp for holy war, or jihad, in Bly, Oregon. Authorities in Oregon say the camp never materialized beyond a dozen people taking target practice. Kassir was arrested Sunday in the Czech Republic. He remains detained in Prague as he awaits extradition to the U.S. (AP) |
