Since 2001, they've busted plenty of sleeper cells or whatever they're called. There are known terrorists at UMD who are members of the Muslim Student Association. And they've found a lot of suspicious happenings that deal with money. That's not a profiling... it's true and fact and if I had the time to look up all the stories online I would.

There's a difference between the two.
I can understand a university trying to hush something up, but this is the kind of stuff that media jump all over.
I can't imagine Channel 7 (WXYZ-TV), any of the other stations or The Free Press knowing about this and not reporting it.
There's just no sense to that.

They would definitely uncover the story if they knew about it. I'm just curious how they didn't find out about this because all of the Detroit media investigative teams are amazing.
