Possible Terrorist?

According to CBS news. the FBI had arrested and detained the #27th man in the must capture list. but the man, Nabil al-Marabh, was recently released and deported, even though he claimed to have been train by al-Qaeda in rifles and RPGs. He also claimed that he was sent here with plans to hijack an fuel truck and drive it "into a New York City tunnel, turning it sideways, opening its fuel valves and having an al Qaeda operative shoot a flare to ignite a massive explosion."

The FBI and the prosecutors in Chicago and Detroit tried to stop the release by trying to indict al-Marabh, but the Justice Department refused claiming it was protecting intelligence. Eventhough al-Marabh said he had desires to die a martyr.



According to the FBI. he was connected to a Boston cab driver, Raed Hijazi, who was convicted in Jordan for planing to bomb a hotel frequented by Americans in Amman in 1999 during milenium celebrations. The FBI later learned that Nabil al-Marabh had been roommates with Raed Hijazi, in the training camps in Afganistan and in the United states and that al-Marabh had sent Hijazi money.

In 1998 and again in 2000, large sums of money was transfers between al-Marabh and Hijazi.

When 4 men were arrested in a Detroit aparment, it was al-Marabh's name on the lease. these 4 men were the first tried in the terroist conspiracy cases.

So, if this man was such a threat, why did the justice department release him for deportation?
