We see many of these small Mideastern proprietorships, gas stations, grocery, convenience stores, motels, etc. all over the country. I never considered the aspect of terrorists moving funds through this type of small business. Hmmm.

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006
TV 8 News has learned FBI agents and local law enforcement authorities are conducting a raid of service stations and businesses owned by Middle Easterners in Northeast Louisiana. Agents executed search warrants today at 10 businesses in Tallulah, Delhi, Lake Providence, Monroe and Ruston. The FBI says the raids are part of "an ongoing criminal investigation." Police sources tell TV 8 News the raids target possible money laundering and counterfeiting in connection with suspected domestic terrorist activity. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is said to be taking part in the investigation. TV 8 News will have details at 5, 6, and 10.
