The Virginia Jihad Network
Prior to al-Tamimi's prosecution, 11 male Muslim members of the so-called Virginia Jihad Network, all but one from the Washington area, were indicted on a number of charges related to their participation in a terrorist enterprise. Nine members of the group were convicted of participating in paramilitary training to prepare for "holy war " abroad that included paint guns as well as using and possessing various firearms, rocket propelled grenades and explosives. Tamimi was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in that case.

Famous quotes containing the word network:
“How have I been able to live so long outside Nature without identifying myself with it? Everything lives, moves, everything corresponds; the magnetic rays, emanating either from myself or from others, cross the limitless chain of created things unimpeded; it is a transparent network that covers the world, and its slender threads communicate themselves by degrees to the planets and stars. Captive now upon earth, I commune with the chorus of the stars who share in my joys and sorrows.”
—Gérard De Nerval (1808–1855)
