(Chicago Tribune) Peter Whoriskey and Dan Eggen - FBI agents in Miami Thursday arrested seven people on terrorism charges in what one law enforcement source called "a homegrown operation" that had among its targets the Sears Tower in Chicago and the FBI office in Miami. The suspects were described as supporters of militant Islam but not members of al-Qaeda. At least five are U.S. citizens. (Washington Post) Tashawn Rose, 29, who lived near the warehouse where the men slept, said, "They would come out late at night and exercise....It seemed like a military boot camp that they were working on there. They would come out and stand guard....They seemed brainwashed. They said they had given their lives to Allah."
