Larry Neumeister
NEW YORK — A Lebanese-born Swede has been charged in a plot to set up a terrorist training camp in Oregon, prosecutors said.
A criminal complaint charging Oussama Kassir with conspiring to provide material support to terrorists was unsealed Tuesday in U.S. District Court.
The case relates to an indictment in Manhattan already charging Mustafa Kamel Mustafa and Haroon Aswat. Mustafa and Aswat are being detained in England while awaiting extradition to the United States. Aswat was arrested in Zambia in July in connection with the deadly July 7 London subway bombings.

This is no small order in a world in which the "hate America" syndrome is in full flower.
