Muslims frustrated with Fort Dix verdict

China Daily | Updated: 2008-12-24 07:42

Muslim leaders reacted with frustration after five Muslim immigrants were convicted of scheming to massacre US soldiers at Fort Dix.

The five defendants were found guilty on Monday in federal court in Camden of conspiring to kill military personnel. But they were acquitted of attempted murder after prosecutors acknowledged the men were probably months away from an attack and did not necessarily have a specific plan.

The arrests in 2007 and subsequent trial tested the FBI's strategy after the Sept 11, 2001, attacks in New York and Washington, D.C., of infiltrating and breaking up terrorist plots in their earliest stages.
