GUANTANAMO PRISONER PLANNED TO TARGET NY JEWS

Detainee allegedly was after Jewish targets
A British detainee in Guantanamo Bay allegedly planned to carry out terrorist attacks against Jewish targets in the United States.

Documents filed in a district court in Washington allege that Martin Mubanga, 31, a Muslim convert, was recruited to Al-Qaida while visiting Pakistan in 2000. Mubanga allegedly then trained in a terrorist camp in Afghanistan before traveling to his birthplace of Zambia. After his 2002 capture by Zambian intelligence services, the papers claim he was found to be carrying a list of 33 mostly New York-based Jewish organizations, and that he “stated that he received instructions to carry out violence against one, if not all, of the groups listed in the aforementioned list.”
