Sniper link to al-Fuqra probed

� 2002 WorldNetDaily.com


Sniper suspect John Muhammad fits the profile of a disaffected outcast who becomes increasingly radicalized under the influence of Islamism, say terrorism analysts and investigators, who suspect he is connected with the radical Islamist group, al-Fuqra.

According to Christian M. Weber, contributing editor for Soldiers for the Truth, an organization headed by Col. David Hackworth, Muhammad seems to follow the model of John Walker Lindh, Richard Reid and Jose Padilla � men exposed to Islamism who become disenchanted with the movement's pace and progress and who take the road to jihad.
