Missing In The News Tonight: The Ft. Jackson Five

From CBN, via Michelle Malkin, comes this story of a plot to poison the food at Ft. Jackson, SC.
CBN News has learned exclusively that five Muslim soldiers at Fort Jackson in South Carolina were arrested just before Christmas. It is unclear whether the men are still in custody. The five were part of the Arabic Translation program at the base.

The men are suspected of trying to poison the food supply at Fort Jackson.

A source with intimate knowledge of the investigation, which is ongoing, told CBN News investigators suspect the “Fort Jackson Five” may have been in contact with the group of five Washington, DC area Muslims that traveled to Pakistan to wage jihad against U.S. troops in December. That group was arrested by Pakistani authorities, also just before Christmas.
You wouldn't know this from reading the Lapdog Media, who are probably still trying to spin the "Angry White Guy Teabagger" line about the lone-nut who flew his plane into a building (and left an anti-Capitalist, anti-religion "suicide note/manifesto" on his company website)
in Austin, TX today.

As a personal aside, my father went through Basic Training at Ft. Jackson in 1959/60.
