U.S. seizes missiles at New Mexico school
 

ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico (CNN) -- Federal agents plan to serve a search warrant Monday at an explosives training school in the desert near Roswell where, authorities say, a Canadian national trained Arab students to use shoulder-launched missiles and other explosives.

David Hudak, 41, was arrested last week on federal explosives and immigration charges, said Special Agent Tom Mangan of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms. A criminal complaint was filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque.

Hudak, from Canada, ran the school in the southeastern New Mexico desert, where students from the United Arab Emirates and Yemen were taught how to use high-powered explosives.

Last week, agents seized about 1,000 pounds of munitions -- including warheads, rockets and missiles for shoulder-guided weapons -- and believe they will find another 4,000 pounds when they open two bunkers Monday, Mangan said.

The warheads seized so far were in 49 crates, and many of them were painted with yellow bands, a NATO marking identifying them as containing high explosives, court papers said.

The crates were falsely labeled as "charge demolition," said Special Agent Tony Singleton of the U.S. Customs Service. Illegal importers often mislabel items to circumvent customs laws, he said.

Inside the crates were "bunker-defeat munitions," military warheads designed to be fired from shoulder-mounted weapons. Agents found no launching devices for the warheads.

There is no reason to suspect Hudak has ties to terrorist groups such as al Qaeda, he said.

Federal agents will be at the school, HEAT, an acronym for High Energy Access Tools, over the next week, he said. Because of the number of explosives and warheads, ATF officials have arranged for specialized government contractors to remove them from the site, court papers said.

One reason Hudak was arrested was that he lied in order to obtain the explosives, using the school as a front, Mangan said. The criminal complaint says Hudak possessed missiles that were not registered to him or the school.

FUCK, you mean Hootie and the Blowfish are a band of terrorists?

What have you got against Canadians? Have you ever been to Canada? They are really nice people, and don't deserve the flack they get.

*cough* *cough* they couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag though *cough* biggrin:

so they're gona execute that dumb ass right?

Why? Thats not an executable offence.

Perhaps treason, but I doubt it. All he did illegal was lying about what he was using the weapons for.

He is a Canadian citizen. Send him back here and we'll deal with him.
