U.S. Jails Indian 15 Years for Hizbullah Weapons
A U.S. judge on Monday sentenced an Indian man to 15 years in prison for conspiracy and attempting to provide weapons to Hizbullah.
Patrick Nayyar, a 50-year-old living illegally in New York, was arrested in 2009 and found guilty by a jury in March 2012. He was sentenced to 15 years in jail by District Judge Robert Sweet.
He was convicted of agreeing to supply an FBI undercover agent with guns, ammunition, vehicles, bulletproof vests and night vision goggles between July and September 2009.
Before his arrest, he supplied a pistol, pick-up truck and box of ammunition to the agent, whom he thought would deliver the items to Hizbullah, which is designated by Washington as a terrorist group.
An alleged co-conspirator, Conrad Mulholland, 47, is not a U.S. citizen and left the country before charges were filed. He remains at large, the prosecutor's office said.

You beat me to it mowaten. I was thinking the same thing, exactly the same! We are so so similar: we are both narcissists, both shia extremists who pretend to be moderates, both have an inferiority complex, both pretend to be secular, and both have multiple accounts. I just hope readers don't think we are the same poster.
