Wow, she deserves a medal. Or better yet, lets put her in charge of homeland security. "In January 2005, I came upon another individual here in the United States who claimed to have knowledge and skills in nuclear physics and was offering his abilities online to Al-Qaeda to carry out terrorist attacks here on U.S. soil. The individual's online tracks traced back to several public library locations in Ohio. I began communicating with this individual in English and transliterated Arabic and later identified him as Mohammed Radwan Obeid. During the course of our communications, Obeid talked about nuclear weapons and other weapons attractive to the mujahideen as well as his desire to recruit people to start or join a terror cell. In March of 2005, the FBI arrested Obeid, a Jordanian and illegal alien pretending to be a Jehovah's Witness. He has since been sentenced to a year in prison, followed by deportation.[9] Finally, in October 2005, I came into contact with another U.S. citizen intending to harm the United States for Al-Qaeda. Michael C. Reynolds was arrested on December 5, 2005, outside of Pocatello, Idaho.[10] He thought he was conspiring with an Al-Qaeda operative online seeking to cause a major disruption in the U.S. economy and its foreign policy objectives abroad by bombing sections of the Alaska transcontinental pipeline and other U.S. oil and energy installations. On October 3, 2006, a federal grand jury in Scranton, Pennsylvania, indicted Reynolds on six counts of attempted terrorism activities.[11] Reynolds remains in federal custody in Pennsylvania pending judgment.[12]"
