Further Details in the Suspected Terrorist Investigation
It's the first news of it's kind here in Bowling Green Kentucky: two suspected terrorists living in the community allegedly plotting to harm Suspected Terrorist: FBI Talk about Investigation It's the first news of it's kind here in Bowling Green Kentucky: two suspected terrorists living in the community allegedly plotting to harm U.S. troops in Iraq. It may have been shocking to hear the news, but for the Feds, they had been keeping a watch on the men for quite sometime. The FBI conducted an extensive investigation over the course of 20 months. Now, Alwan's and Hammadi's checkered pasts are coming out, and the suspects were allegedly revealing their backgrounds in their own words. Beginning in 2010, one year after the initial investigation, an under cover agent, or as the FBI says confidential human source (CHS) , had conversations with Alwan, and then later Hammadi. Both allegedly said they had been insurgents in Iraq and had even been arrested by Iraqi authorities in the past. Kentucky FBI Spokesman Special Agent David Beyer tells WBKO that during their investigation they uncovered a finger pring of Alwan's on an unexploded IED. Special Agent Beyer says once the two were in the U.S. they allegedly expressed interests in sending money and weapons to Iraq to the CHS. Special Agent Beyer assures that the weapons these men were supposedly trying to transport were inoperable and never made it to the intended destination because it was all a part of the under cover operation. He says, "There was no real danger in regards to the weapons being transported." According to Special Agent Beyer the FBI is still investigating whether there are more people suspected of terrorism in Kentucky. Bowling Green City Commissioner and Former Police Chief Bill Waltrip says he commends the FBI and local law enforcement for working together to make an arrest. Waltrip says, "As a community Bowling Green should remain vigilant. Any acts of terrorism or criminal activity should be reported to the law enforcement, so they can work and do their jobs." Waltrip, along with Special Agent Beyer, adds that these two men should be seen as individuals who are suspected of a crime and not a specific group.
