A 22-year-old Rockford man has been charged with plotting to set off hand grenades in an alleged terror attack at a popular Rockford mall during the busy holiday season, federal authorities announced today.
Derrick Shareef, of Rockford, has been charged with attempting to maliciously damage and destroy a building and to use a weapon of mass destruction against persons or property in the U.S., federal authorities said.
According to an FBI affidavit, Shareef met with an undercover federal agent in a Rockford area parking lot to trade stereo speakers for a handgun and four hand grenades that he intended to use at the CherryVale shopping mall at 7200 Harrison Ave., just off the junction of Interstate Highways 90 and 39 in the city.
The mall, with about 130 retail stores, was one of several potential targets, which also included courthouses, city hall and several government buildings, the complaint alleges. Sources said there was no imminent threat from the attack, describing it as more of a hopeful plan.
Shareef also allegedly told an acquaintance who actually was cooperating with the FBI that he wanted to commit acts of "violent jihad" against civilians.
Shareef told an undercover informant that he wanted to attack a courthouse in DeKalb County and "smoke a judge," according to the complaint.
"[T]he courthouse in DeKalb where I be going every month …You go in there and you clock the first three [guards] at the door that they got, and you up in there, you know what I'm saying…I just want to smoke a judge," the complaint quoted Shareef as saying.
The informant then asked Shareef when he wanted to stage the attack.
"What do you think? I like the holiday season," the complaint quotes him as saying.
May allah grant him many man sausages in prison! Allah Fubar!
And find your honor in pieces.
I am ready to revoke freedom of religion. There is no right to worship the death of everyone else that isn't in your cult
Oh man I loved that show!
Michael Savage just read the statements of Shareef that were recorded by the secret service agent who had contact with him. Guess it won't be on the news as it would frighten folks too much and make them stay away from shopping malls between now and Christmas! Thank God the FBI caught this terrorist before he succeeded in his mission!
We're fighting them over there so we won't have to fight them--
Oh wait.
The 11-page FBI affidavit is on thesmokinggun.com.
It provides significantly more information than most of the broadcast media news reports.

Also consider the Oklahoma University bomber from 2005
There are lots of ways to kill large amounts of people, particularly if you don't care if you get caught or survive.
Consider what could be done with a van, a whole bunch of gasoline, and a power sprayer along a crowded city street at rush hour

I haven't read the whole thread here, but have to admit to being skeptical about this,
though I hope it is correct for everyone's sake.
From a review of the movie INVASION USA:
........"That first setpiece is a real honey, taking place in a shopping mall during the Christmas season. It involves a bomb left in a shopping bag in a busy store. This leads to the terrorist being chased through the mall by a Good Samaritan with the bag he thinks the terrorist dropped, and I would be lying if I said that idea didn't do my heart some good. This possible come-uppance, though, is short-circuited by some of the terrorist's pals cutting down the bomb-carrying Samaritan with machine gun fire. And they're not using easily-concealed automatic weapons, either – they're using assault rifles and something that looks like a Schmeisser submachine gun. How did anybody miss these guys carrying those?
Well, Hunter, of course, puts an end to these hi-jinx by driving through the mall's plate-glass doors and using his own lead-sprayers: a brace of Uzi machine pistols in a strange harness that lets the guns hang by his side, And in this photo, we see a stuntwoman REALLY earning her money.allowing a sort of cowboy quick draw. The two surviving terrorists steal a truck from a display and take a hostage by grabbing a woman through the driver's side window in the parking lot, and here is one of the best stunts of the pre-CGI 80s: Hunter pursues the truck through the streets of the city, a stunt woman hanging onto the side of the truck for dear life.
The setpieces continue in a fairly efficient comi..."

aWESOME RESPONSE!!!
I'd say it was something like Jawrel, or another name so popular with black Americans. I haven' seen any photos of this idiot, but from the quoted speech, I have a feeling he's a Negro just released from prison.
TROP, hijacked by extremists (Dripping sarcasm OFF). The moderates will be all over the place condemning this plot. Right?
a stupid Congressman's emails are more important than blowing up a shopping mall full of people....
"The media likes to give all the full names...8>)"
Except for Barack Hussein Obama, they are pretty mum about that . .
Actually, he appears to be white. Probably just released from prison, though.
Simply because ugly convicted felons are the easiest to tempt with the grandeur of a fancy new and meaningless Arabic name (most are bastards) and the promise of a promiscuous paradise after death because they already know they won't make it to heaven and the only thing most think about is the head between their legs.
They become useful tools and weapons at very little cost or effort...
Semper Fi
Notice how this story is getting buried under Foley.
Apparently, a perv Congressman's emails are FAR more important than blowing up a mall full of people....
