Agency (ies) [OGA].
This information has been referred to the OGA(s) for review and direct response to you.

In accordance with standard FBI practice and pursuant to FOIA exemption (b)(7)(E) and Privacy Act

For your information, Congress excluded three discrete categories of law enforcement and national security
records from the requirements of the FOIA. See 5 U.S. C. 552(c) (2006 & Supp. IV (201 0). This response is
limited to those records that are subject to the requirements of the FOIA. This is a standard notification that is given
to all our requesters and should not be taken as an indication that excluded records do, or do not, exist. Enclosed for
your information is a copy of the Explanation of Exemptions.
For questions regarding our determinations, visit the www.fbi.gov/foia website under "Contact Us."
The FOIPA Request Number listed above has been assigned to your request. Please use this number in all
correspondence concerning your request. Your patience is appreciated.
You have the right to appeal any denials in this release. Appeals should be directed in writing to the Director,
Office Information Policy (OIP), U.S. Department of Justice,1425 New York Ave., NW, Suite 11050, Washington,

The enclosed material is from the main investigative file(s) in which the subject(s) of your request was the
focus of the investigation. Our search located additional references, in files relating to other individuals, or matters,
which may or may not be about your subject(s). Our experience has shown when ident, references usually contain
information similar to the information processed in the main file(s). Because of our significant backlog, we have
given priority to processing only the main investigative file(s). If you want the references, you must submit a
separate request for them in writing, and they will be reviewed at a later date, as time and resources permit.
Sincerely,
David M. Hardy

Enclosures (2)
The enclosed documents contained in sections 9 and 10 of the Charlotte Field Office file 415F-CE-92639
represent the 5th interim release of information responsive to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
Upon receipt of the enclosed CD-ROM, please go to www.pay.gov to make an electronic payment*, or make a
check or money order payable to the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the amount of $15.00 and remit payment to the
Work Process Unit, Record/Information Dissemination Section, Records Management Division, Federal Bureau of
Investigation, 170 Marcel Drive, Winchester, VA 22602. Please include the FOIPA request number(s) with your
payment. If we do not receive this payment within thirty (30) days from the date of this letter, your request will be closed.
*Pay.gov is a secure web-based application that accepts credit card and ACH payments online, and is hosted by the
United States Department of Treasury, Financial Management Service. For frequent FOIPA requesters, it is
recommended to create a Pay.gov account to retain an online history of payments made through Pay.gov and to retain
specific information for future payments. To make an electronic payment, complete the FBI Freedom of Information
Act and Privacy Act Form located on Pay.gov. Please note: if a refund is necessary, there is less processing time to
refund a credit card payment than an ACH payment.

The FIG research discovered an online blog maintained
by Khan 1 which identified his interest in the Tanzeem-e-Islamiaffiliated1 US-based organization/ Islamic Organization of North
America (IONA) 1 and in jihad. It was discovered that Khan stated that
his view of jihad and IONA's view of jihad differ in that IONA does
not publicly support the physical fighting aspect of jihad.

goal of
influence anyone to commit or attempt to commit an act of terror. A
secondary goal is to determine if Khan is being directed by a higher
authority/authorities to do so.
If the investigation does determine
that Khan is influencing or has influenced anyone to commit an act of
ter~or, the FBI will disrupt Khan, either by prosecuting him for
violations of Title 18, Section 2339A/B (Material Support), and Title
18, Section 373 (Solicitation to Commit a Crime of Violence), or by
other means.
Prior to proceeding with any plan for disruption, it
will be determined if the continued gathering of intelligence is more
beneficial than a disruption (i.e. are other subjects of greater
interest being identified, can Khan be recruited, etc.).

Khan has administered, and currently administers, a
fundamentalist Islamic, pro-jihad online blog and is a registered
member on several other online forums with similar content. An
earlier version of his online blog was ranked among the top one
percent of one hundred million Internet web sites in the world.
His current online blog contains postings that support violent
jihad to include links to hundreds of videos that graphically
depict the killing of US soldiers in Iraq, suicide attacks on
coalition facilities, and speeches by Ayman al Zawahiri and UBL.
In his online blog, Khan has stated his desire to bring about the
Islamic Caliphate and that he feels the west is a hypocrisy.

source research. The FBI discovered an online blog maintained by KHAN, which identified his
interest in the Tanzeem-e-Islami-affiliated, US-based organization, Islamic Organization ofNorth
America (IONA), and in jihad. It was discovered that KHAN stated that his view of jihad and
IONA's view of jihad differ in that IONA does not publicly support the physical fighting aspect of
jihad.

ummm iKHAN has administered, and currently
adlmmsters, a furidamentahst lslannc, prO-Jihad onlme blog and is a registered member on several
other online forums with similar content. An earlier version of his online blog was ranked among
the top one percent of one hundred million Internet web sites in the world. His current online blog
contains postings that support violent jihad to include links to hundreds ofvideos that graphically
depict the killing of US soldiers in Iraq, suicide attacks on coalition facilities, and speeches by
A YMAN AL ZAWAHIRI and UBL. In his online blog, KHAN has stated his desire to bring about
the Islamic Caliphate and that he feels the west is a hypocrisy.

would not rule out picking up a weapon himself one day. This article, and subsequently KHAN,
received significant media and press coverage, both locally and nationally;
