Testimony: terror suspects cased targets

Today an FBI agent testified in Atlanta in the trial of two men charged with terrorism. The agent said under oath that Syed Ahmed and Eshanul Sadequee shot "casing videos" of Washington landmarks that were later found on a computer belonging to a United Kingdom terror suspect. He also testified that the two Georgia men met with several terror suspects arrested in Canada in 2006. Ahmed and Sadequee, both U.S. citizens, are accused of undergoing training to carry out a "violent jihad" in America.
