Bingo!
There will be an event within the next two weeks, to wipe Benghazi off all front pages - the question is how many people will die to accomplish this?

The agency said the alleged terror plot was discovered through analysis of intelligence gathered by local, state and federal authorities.

I'll be interested in seeing if they get more specific. "Good enough to convince a judge to give them a search warrant" is no longer good enough for me.

From what we’ve seen lately with these kinds of stories.. they may get less specific, more specific.. or change their story entirely!!

Trust they will roll up an ongoing investigation every week or so now, regardless what the strength of the case may be. CYA time.

"could be trying to distract from Benghazi hearings."

The timing is suspicious.

They could also just be trying to look like they are on top of terrorism after their recent EPIC FAIL with the Boston bombing.

I'm giving the Feds the benefit of the doubt. The possession of arms does not in itself indicate a terrorist plot. Otherwise, Duck Dynasty would be considered terrorists.

They've not shown their evidence of why they believe this guy was planning something, but something must have triggered them. Hopefully it wasn't just an overly suspicious neighbor.

As kids we used to but aerosol cans in fires and shoot them. Very dangerous and stupid and fun. Today we would be accused of setting off bombs.

Two bombs blow up crowds of spectators at the Boston marathon; a crazed gunman shoots dozens of soldiers at ft Hood while shouting Alluhu Akbar - we don't know if it was terrorism, lets not jump to conclusions.

A hillbilly collects guns and makes pipe bombs in his trailer out in the sticks, its terrorism!
