It says the 28-year-old Hammami is a resident of Daphne, Ala., who moved to Somalia in 2006. He has served as a propagandist for the al Qaeda-affiliated organization, attracting English-speaking youth with rap songs and video statements, and as a military commander.

The department says Mostafa is a U.S. citizen who lived in San Diego before moving to Somalia in 2005.

He's served as a media expert and leader of foreign fighters for al-Shabaab, which has fought for years for control over Somalia.

Both men have been indicted in the U.S. on terror charges.

America the land of cheap grace, (I accept Jesus as my savior), and cheap allegiance, (The United States is the Greatest Nation in the World).
And when Americans tell someone "My Way or the Highway", and that person says fine good by, Americans Really Get Bent Out of Shape.
Forty to fifty percent of working age Americans have no job, our government and politicians have defrauded America out of it's future.
In reality the FBI is the "Keeper of the Secrets" They do this by harassing people, to the point where they have no time to talk about the wrong doing of the government.
