CBN Exclusive: Five Muslim Soldiers Arrested at Fort Jackson in South Carolina - Trying To Poison the Food Supply?

CBN News has learned exclusively that five Muslim soldiers at Fort Jackson in South Carolina were arrested just before Christmas and are in custody. The five men 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.

Coming as it does on the heels of November's Fort Hood jihadist massacre, this news has major implications.

Stay tuned to this blog for more details.

From Fox:
The U.S. Army is investigating allegations that soldiers were attempting to poison the food supply at Fort Jackson in South Carolina.

The ongoing probe began two months ago, Chris Grey, a spokesman for the Army’s Criminal Investigation Division, told Fox News.

The Army is taking the allegations “extremely seriously,” Grey said, but so far, "there is no credible information to support the allegations."

Five suspects, detained in December, were part of an Arabic translation program called "09 Lima" and use Arabic as their first language, two sources told Fox News. Another military source said they were Muslim. It wasn't clear whether they were still being held.

Grey would not confirm or deny the sources’ information.

How/why did this story stay under wraps since December?

Why release the info today? Do the troops in/out of Fort Jackson coincide with this release of info?

Up until a couple of hours ago - precious little was known about this on the web. Now, reports are popping up exponentially - yet with only the information available at CBN.

It appears there is great resistence to releasing this story. All hell is going to break loose when it does.

Our loyal men and women in uniform deserve better especially since Fort Hood.

Nothing to see here folks, move along.

After all, Brennan just told us that many Muslims want to serve honorably in the U.S. military.

I'm sure this is just some kind of unfortunate mislamunderstanding.

If this story had any validity, I don't think it would still be this vague this long after Christmas!

But! - If there is 1% of truth in it, I want to see head rolling on the ground !!!

"why did this story stay under wraps since December?"

You're kidding right?

This violates the PC dialectic which much be upheld for institutional reasons far beyond Obama.

We aren't even NEAR questioning if there IS a particular problem institutionally.

This story, from the Army's viewpoint is not about muslims. They can't and won't treat them differently and that is CORRECT NOW. The problem is not the muslims, the problem is identifying those muslims to whom the Quran is more important than their individual consciences. Which will lead to THIS.

This is currently IMPOSSIBLE to even discuss inside the armed forces today.

In society FORGET IT. We are BARELY the fringe of a fringe.

Look at Pam& Bob Spencer, Wafa Sultan, Coughlin at CPAC.. TRYING to get attention on this issue.

UPDATE FROM FOX:
The US Army's Criminal Investigation Division began the probe into the claims two months ago reported Fox News. A spokesman for the division, Chris Grey said the army was taking the allegations 'extremely seriously', but added there was 'no credible information to support the allegations', reported Fox News.

Fox News also reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) were aware of the Fort Jackson investigation, but the FBI said the inquiry would be carried out by the army's CID.

More from a blogger:
I finished my Army career as the chief of public affairs for CID Command and became fairly expert in investigative procedures. If, after two months of investigation, CID agents have "no credible information to support the allegations," then I feel very safe saying that there is nothing to see there, move along. Nor should you take Mr. Grey's statement as misdirection or cover. If there were substantive leads for an ongoing investigation, he would have said simply that the investigation continues and then said nothing more about it. Army PAOs do not do cover up, they just shut up. After all, as my colonel kept reminding me when I was chief of media relations for XVIII Airborne Corps and Fort Bragg, "you will never get into trouble for saying too little."

A word about CID. It is a major command of the Army, meaning that its commanding general (Brig. Gen. Colleen McGuire) reports to the Army's chief of staff.
