EXCLUSIVE: Four New York City men were arrested Wednesday in connection with an alleged plot to blow up New York City synagogues and other city locations, WNBC's Jonathan Dienst has learned.
Raids by the FBI-NYPD Joint Terrorist Task Force in the Bronx captured the suspected ringleader and three followers in what law enforcement sources are calling a homegrown terrorist plot.
Investigators stress the suspects' meetings had been infiltrated early on and there was "no chance" the alleged plot could succeed.
Investigators said several of the suspects are Muslims who allegedly talked about destroying two Jewish temples, including at least one in the Riverdale section of the Bronx.
The men ordered and accepted delivery of materials they believed were bomb-making ingredients, authorities said. But investigators said they made sure the materials the suspects received were inert. Officials tell WNBC they moved in now so the alleged plot could not progress any further.
The four men are in custody and are expected to be arraigned Thursday in White Plains federal court on terrorism-related counts.

Boy, I hope nobody had to resort to waterboarding to get info leading to these arrests.
It would be better to have people dead in the synagogues than to....
Hm.
By which time this will be old news and nobody will care.
At least nobody in the weak-stream media.
Ping!
Surprise, surprise, surprise!
< /Gomer Pyle voice>
Look how hesitant they are to even say they are Muslim.
Falls under Hate Crime
Understandable. They don't want to face charges of "flagrant Islamophobia", which, in today's world, is more of a crime than plotting to blow up synagogues.
The march to Orwell's "1984" continues.
Does that mean they get to be extra crispy? Oh .. its NY .. nevermind.
Amish at it again?
Move along. Nothing new. Muskies are peace loving.
FOR THOSE WHO MISSED IT, HEAR FREEPER bluecollarman SING “MUSLIMS IN LONDON”

The rest must have been Amish.
Hate crime...
PING!!!
Four Arrests in NYC Terror Plot ABC News is reporting that the FBI has made four arrests in an alleged New York City terrorism plot. Initial reports are that the four had been scheming to blow up a Jewish synagogue in the Bronx with a car bomb. The suspects also allegedly attempted to procure stinger missiles to shoot down military aircraft near West Point. At least three appear to be radicalized recent converts to Islam, according to law enforcement sources. For the latest, tune to 77 WABC or listen online at http://www.wabcradio.com/listen
I think panties are still allowed, aren't they?
I would have thought the first joke would have been about Catholics......LOL. no surprise the religion of peace is involved though.
Yep muzzies plotting to kill Jews and the big O is pushing a two state solution.
I don’t know. The panties are pretty bad. But the caterpillars are worse...
“Boy, I hope nobody had to resort to waterboarding to get info leading to these arrests.”
I will add that I sure hope none of the suspects were kicked in the head while being arrested. That would offend the many Libs (probably some whose lives were saved) and certain anti-cop Freepers posting on this site.
better men than obama have tried.......he is destined to fail.
“Investigators said several of the suspects are Muslims”
Im shocked!
FOO Friends of obama.
LOL!
I just hope that they get their special diets and pray times in prison and don’t have to mix with the general population.
OF COURSE NOT!!!!!! Panties on the head of a moo-slime man is one of the 14,763 WORST things you can do to a moo-slime man. Didn’t you read the memo??????
Angry, White, Christian, vets who drink tea, no doubt.
I’m sure Obama will have them released with an apology. The FBI will “accidentally” blow the case like they did with Wen Ho Lee.

It’s a damn disgrace the way we treat these terrorists with kid gloves. it would be a better world if our LEO’s were able to throw these filthy homicidal heathens a good ‘ol fashion blanket party...apologies to any anti-cop Freepers who may be reading this...
Imagine that! I would never in a million years have suspected that.
/sarc
“Investigators said several of the suspects are Muslims ...”
What are the odds ?
Converts are the worst. The most fanatical and the most eager to kill the Joooooos.
As soon as I saw the headline I smelled the stench of Islam.
Waterboard them in pigs blood until they sell out all their co conspirators.
After all the groveling Jack Bauer did on Monday and this is how they repay us?
No doubt these muslims are anit-immigration right wing extremist former service men abortion foes who just returned from duty in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"Several" of the four? Translation: all.
The motives behind the alleged plot are not yet known
lol....
Yeah and Curtis Sliwa (who should friggin’ know better), had on some ABC/reporter clown, and both of them are giving out TOO MUCH INFORMATION Biden style.
Have they ever heard of misinformation or holding back details... (shakes head).
We’ve only been telling Homeland about Newburgh for five years. Watch they don’t close the terror mosque down... just like al Farooq in Brooklyn and 4 others in NY and NJ we know preach jihad.
I’m sure Peter King told him on the DL to cool it...
As long as he’s been on the streets, Curtis should know better. He asked ridiculous questions that shouldn’t be asked or answered, and the rube reporter was spouted... and Curtis kept on asking more. If I were down with that group, I would know everything the feds had now. (and use it for slander or some BS if disproven and they cut the guys loose).
Sono, better get your counter-protest gear ready for the trial... This isn’t Britain.
Nam Vet
Well, there goes the rest of the cases...
What a damned idiot.
Muslims? Everybody knows that muslims are pacifists of the first order. /sarcasm tag for those who didn’t get it.
And we have backup
But then again... with Dan Brown's factual Vatican/Illuminati flick and the albino from the last one :)
