This year, three men from Minneapolis pleaded guilty to terrorism-related charges in the U.S., and at least three more have died in Somalia, including one whom authorities believe was the first American suicide bomber. Australian authorities last month revealed that they had uncovered an alleged plot by immigrants, including three Somalis, to carry out a suicide attack.
