by Damozel | Abdulhakim Muhammed, an American convert to Islam, murdered one man and seriously wounded the other. They were standing in front of a recruiting station as part of a program that uses troops out of basic training to promote recruiting.
So far, investigations into any terrorists ties have proven inconclusive, according to The New York Times. The murderer said that he acted alone and that "he was mad at the U.S. military because of what they had done to Muslims in the past," according to the arrest report.(NYT) But it's emerged that on one occasion the 23 year old was detained in Yemen on a certain occasion "for possessing a fake Somali passport and other counterfeit documents."(NYT) "[H]is travels to Yemen and possibly Somalia raise questions about whether he met with any of the militant Islamic groups that are active in both countries."(More at NYT)
