[EDPA] Ali Charaf Damache, a resident of Ireland of Algerian origin, and Mohammad Hassan Khalid, a Pakistani citizen residing in Elicott City, Maryland, were charged with conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists. The indictment charged Damache and Khalid of setting up a violent jihad organization consisting of men and women from Europe and the United States, some of whom would travel to South Asia for explosives training and return to Europe to wage violent jihad. The indictment further alleged that Damache, also known as "theblackflag" and Khalid conspired with Colleen LaRose (a/k/a Jihad Jane) and Jamie Paulin Ramirez in a conspiracy to wage violent jihad overseas.
