Apparently he is a US naturalized citizen who carried Al-Qaeda and Taliban notes in his car.

A man carrying a suspicious package was detained in Arlington National Cemetery this morning after police searched his backpack and found the materials as well as pro-al Qaeda literature, officials told ABC News.

Police believe he was carrying ammonium nitrate and spent ammunition for an automatic weapon. Ammonium nitrate has been used in terrorist bombs.

The man has been ID’d as a Marine reservist.
