(New York Times) - According to the FBI, Sami Al-Arian, a Palestinian professor of computer engineering at the University of South Florida, was a major fundraiser for a terrorist group that funneled money to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, responsible for attacks in which scores of Israelis, and at least one American, have been killed or wounded. The case is one of several FBI inquiries into Muslim organizations in suburban Chicago, Dallas, and northern Virginia suspected of funneling money to terrorist groups.
