Prosecutors say Earnest James Ujaama, 36, who was born James Earnest= Thompson, conspired to create an al-Qaida boot camp in rural Oregon.= Ujaama also helped al-Qaida with computer training and Internet= propaganda, according to the 9-page indictment released late Wednesday. Ujaama is a well-known Seattle activist who was arrested by the FBI last= month and was held as a material witness until charges could be filed. In= addition to operating the StopAmerica.org site, which quotes Ujaama as= accusing the United States of "conspiracy to commit genocide and crimes of= terrorism against Muslim people," the government says he designed a site= called the Supporters of Shariah. "It was further a part of the conspiracy that Ujaama established one or= more World Wide Web sites (through which his co-conspirator) espoused his= beliefs concerning the need to conduct global violent jihad against the= United States of America and other Western nations," the indictment says. The Supporters of Shariah site predicts Muslim domination rising= "unchallenged over the whole of the globe" and condemns Jews as inherently= corrupt. It assails Christianity, saying: "They are filthy scum of the= earth and Allah says about these kuffar, they are beneath the level of the= cattle." Shari'ah is a reference to the religious laws of Islam. Ujaama is an American black Muslim convert who was raised in Seattle and= allegedly traveled to London in 1996 to study under a militant Muslim= cleric and al-Qaida recruiter named Sheikh Abu Hamza Al-Masri. Al-Masri,= who lost his hands and left eye fighting in Afghanistan, is wanted in= Yemen on terrorist charges. After Ujaama was arrested in Denver and his brother Mustafa was briefly= detained, friends and family dismissed the idea of any ties they had with= terrorist cells operating in America. "They've been busy for a long= time--visiting elected officials, trying to raise money for the Central= Area Youth Association, being proponents of the need to improve employment= conditions," King County Executive Ron Sims told the Seattle= Post-Intelligencer. "Terrorists? I don't think so." Ujaama said in a statement at the time, "My brother and I are not= terrorists, and we should not have been charged in the media and= harassed." Ujaama is charged with providing "training, facilities, computer services,= safe houses and personnel to al-Qaida." He is also charged with federal= firearms violations. Also on Wednesday, another federal grand jury indicted five Denver men on= charges of operating "as a covert underground support unit for terrorist= attacks." In a third unrelated case, a federal judge in Virginia on Wednesday ordered= the FBI to explain why the bureau had no records of alleged Sept. 11= conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui's e-mail. Moussaoui, who used the xdesertman@hotmail.com address, has asked that the= FBI turn over any records of e-mail it obtained by sending a subpoena to= Microsoft's Hotmail service. Prosecutors claimed the government had obtained no e-mail from the account,= prompting U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema to express skepticism.= "Given the intense law enforcement attention focused on Mr. Moussaoui= after Sept. 11, 2001," Brinkema wrote, "we do not understand why an= immediate and thorough investigation into the defendant's e-mail and= computer activities did not lead investigators to the= xdesertman@hotmail.com account, if it existed." http://snipurl.com/2gb ------------------------ Yahoo!
