So, what about the three illegal alien Jersey Jihadist suspects–the Duka brothers? Were they smuggled across the border or stowaways? That’s what the feds are checking out now.

They’re also checking to see if the three other accused jihadi plotters–one a naturalized US citizen, the other two green card holders–lied on their applications.

Yeah, that would be a shocker.

Update: Shocked, shocked…

Three brothers charged in the alleged Fort Dix terror plot have been living illegally in the U.S. for more than 23 years and were accepted as Americans by neighbors and friends who had no idea they would scheme to attack military bases and slaughter GIs.

A federal law enforcement source confirmed to FOX News that the three — Dritan “Anthony” or “Tony” Duka, 28; Shain Duka, 26; and Eljvir “Elvis” Duka, 23 — also accumulated 19 traffic citations, but because they operated in “sanctuary cites,” where law enforcement does not routinely report illegal immigrants to homeland security, none of the tickets raised red flags.

The brothers entered the United States near Brownsville, Texas, in 1984, the source said, which would put their ages at 1 to 6 when they crossed the border.
