Fort Dix terrorism trial begins

The World

Jury selection begins today in the trial of five men accused of plotting a terrorist attack on the army base in Fort Dix, New Jersey. The Muslim men, all in their 20s, were taken into FBI custody in May 2007 after a tip from a store clerk asked to dub a videotape containing scenes of men with weapons and cries for jihad. Guest: George Anastasia, Philadelphia Inquirer crime reporter
