His base of operations was his federal prison cell. Housed, clothed and fed on taxpayer dollars, one of the 1993 World Trade Center bombers encouraged jihad.
From there, Mohamed Salameh wrote letters encouraging suicide bombers and praising Osama bin Laden. Prison censors should have caught the letters. They didn't.
His letters went to a Spanish terror cell and to Arabic newspapers. Federal prosecutors who worked to lock up Salameh say the letters helped recruit new terrorists.
Sen Charles Schumer (D-NY) wants those who allowed the letters to slip through fired. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales says an investigation is already underway. (MSNBC)
