One of the jihadi world's most famous bloggers could be brought up on U.S. terrorism charges soon, NPR has learned.

A federal grand jury in Charlotte, N.C., convened to consider evidence against Samir Khan, a 24-year-old North Carolina man who is thought to be the editor of Inspire, a new al-Qaida online magazine.

1. LOL Two refrences there.

Has the anarchist Khan reference, then a reference from a post on Terminator. Although it spins it backwards ignoring what is said. Ignoring the thoughts, what is that, really saying what the person that sees it that way is about.

Some people may think it is about violence, that is their choice, but obviously it is about love.

Good and bad in everything.

Those that see it as violence, that is the terminator hunting them, and hurting them.


No idea what the article is about, but the wording links to two previous posts.
