Yes, as bob has pointed out it's time again for our favorite terrorist, Jose Padilla! He seems to have some friends who are going down with him.
Indicted with him were Adham Amin Hassoun, who is detained in Florida; Mohamed Hesham Youssef, who is in prison in Egypt; Kifah Wael Jayyousi, who is also detained in Florida, and Kassem Daher, who is outside the United States but whose exact legal status is not known.

Padilla's lawyer, Donna Newman, said in New York that her client denied all of the allegations and looked forward to being vindicated at trial."We are very happy about this indictment. It's what we've asked for. You don't hold American citizens without charges," Newman said. "Now we can go to court and challenge the government's assertions."
That should make ralph/media watchpup happy.
It seems that the feds are finally getting serious: here is a story on the conviction of an Al Queda terrorist in the US today as well.
The 12-member jury found Ahmed Abu Ali, 24, guilty of all charges in a nine-count indictment. He had been charged with conspiracy to assassinate Bush, conspiring to support and supporting al Qaeda, and conspiracy to hijack aircraft.
Thanks for the memories, bob! Go Feds!
