>WASHINGTON (CNN) -- FBI agents were raiding sites in Miami, Florida, on Thursday in connection with a domestic terrorism investigation, law enforcement sources said.

The FBI said one search warrant was being executed in the Liberty City area of Miami. Officials said no weapons or bomb-making materials had been found in the searches so far.

"We are conducting a number of arrests and searches, and we'll have more about that when the operation is completed, probably tomorrow morning," FBI Director Robert Mueller told CNN's Larry King in an interview to be broadcast Thursday.

You're right. Even Zacky Moussaoui knew that... maybe he knows these guys.

You bet.

Does anyone know what happened to the 'Arab' who was discovered out in the middle of the US with stolen cars?

[kcvl]

I must have missed that!

CNN keeps saying "domestic" yes it's our fault again!

[SE Mom]

OK- Steve Centani reporting on FOX...says they wanted to "wage jihad and work with Al Qaeda"

Gee....this must mean they're Amish after all?

I think the original reporting must have meant these guys aren't FROM the ME...

[roses of sharon]

Don't fret, as soon as Dems are elected, every arrest will be trumpeted as a success for the Dem Pres, or Dem Congress!!

The MSM will have an entirely different tone.

And the right will be happy for the arrest and prevention of a terrorist attack.

Then our country will be together again. /s

Hope they nail everyone involved and have stopped any plot in its tracks.

I do trust that the culprits will turn out to represent a truly "broad strata of society" just like the CANADA-17 and other very diverse groups of non-Muslim terrorists and terrorist wannabes.

We would not want to find out that the FBI has gone after a bunch of people who all have, let me take a very wild guess, Islamic and jihadist tendencies in common....

The Canadian bust was probably the first of many, and the bad guys don't know which city is going to be next.

Steve Centani reporting on FOX...says they wanted to "wage jihad and work with Al Qaeda"

OMG!

[bnelson44]

Update: Government officials tell Fox the men were plotting “to wage jihad in conjunction with Al Qaeda.” So much for the early reports.
