On March 8, 2004 USA Today reported, "Three American Muslims accused of training for holy war against the United States by waging paintball battles in the Virginia woods were convicted Thursday of conspiring to support terrorism. Prosecutors said the three were part of a 'Virginia jihad network' that used paintball games in 2000 and 2001 to train for holy war around the globe. After the Sept. 11 attacks, the group allegedly focused efforts on defending the Taliban. Two of the defendants were accused of traveling to Pakistan to train with a terrorist group. The convictions will likely result in some of the longest prison terms the government has obtained in its war on terrorism. Masoud Khan, 34, of Gaithersburg, Md., was found guilty of the most serious charges, including conspiracy to levy war against the United States and conspiracy to contribute services to the Taliban. Seifullah Chapman, 31, of Alexandria, and Hammad Abdur-Raheem, 35, of Falls Church, were also convicted on terrorism conspiracy counts."
