ABC News:

Voo Doo just does not sound like a good mix. Of course he could have been Catholic, but that does not explain the association. Haiti is one of those failed states that is so dysfunctional that not even al Qaeda could survive. There has to be much more to this story that will come out eventually. CNN reports that a warehouse in the Liberty City area of Miami is the site of a search. They quote FBI director Mueller as saying more info will be available Friday morning after they have collected all the suspects.Among those arrested, five were U.S. citizens, one was a permanent legal resident, and one was a Haitian who was in the United States illegally on a visa overstay, federal officials told ABC News.
The group has been under surveillance for some time and was infilitrated by a government informant who allegedly led them to believe he was an Islamic radical, a Justice Department official said.
The group had expressed interest and discussed bombing targets in Miami and the Sears Tower in Chicago, sources familiar with the investigation said.
