Terrorist Sweep Nets American

We've got another American taking up arms against U.S. interests.

From SunTimes.com:

CAIRO, Egypt -- Police have arrested an American, 11 Europeans and several others from Arab countries for allegedly plotting terrorist attacks in Middle Eastern countries including Iraq, the Interior Ministry said Monday.

The group was part of an Islamic militant terror cell that had adopted extremist ideas and were living in Egypt under the guise of studying Arabic and Islamic studies, the ministry said in a statement.

Two Belgians, nine Frenchman and several Arabs were also within the cell. All are in custody. Thus far, no names have been released.
