Oh, yes. Other than the HLF5, discussions of material support prosecutions in New York always come back to the famous "Brooklyn College sock guy": "T[]he government's charges against Hashmi are based on the testimony of a cooperating witness named Junaid Babar, an acquaintance from Queens who stayed in his student apartment in London in 2004 for two weeks. The government claims that while Babar was in Hashmi's apartment, he had luggage containing raincoats, ponchos, and waterproof socks (what the government terms 'military gear') and that later Babar delivered these materials to the third-ranking member of al-Qaida in South Waziristan, Pakistan." http://slate.me/1g2V1Lk I wonder what he makes of Israel flipping military aid from the same government that prosecuted him to help fighters in Syria for the same group?
