It’s not beyond reason that this was a set up to give more fuel for banning assault weapons. The insider government is up to no good.....
It’s very odd that they were dumb enough to circulate the DVD for one issue.
I’ve been following this all day and don’t understand why the MSM continues to refer to this as “homegrown” terrorism.
I hear that these fellows were members of the infamously violent Irish Leprachaun Society (ILS) posing a peaceful muslims. /s
I lived in Kosovo from 1999 to 2004. We supported the Kosovar Albanian rebels, who were linked with Al Qaeda both overtly and covertly by U.S. contractors. We supported the KLA, and we changed the name TMK/KPC, but it is the same group. They murdered Serbs; men, women and children since 1999 without few if any arrests. We either looked the other way or actually supported the perpetrators......and still are.
Don't be an alarmist. There is no WOT. I know because John Edwards said so, and any guy who gets $400 haircuts can't be wrong.
ABC 7 in Stamford, CT actually dedicated time to this. They also mentioned the Jihadis wanted to target the Army - Navy game in December.
Lines have been drawn. When will something be done?
I happen to disagree. I believe that they were "close, real close to" trying to "kill[] them some Americans."
I've read many places today the army bases such as Ft. Dix are "soft targets." Somehow I just don't buy it, and portions of this article seem to indicate that there are significant (and I'd wager lethal) security measures in place, some obvious and some not so obvious.
Doesn't fit their agenda. If they are not homegrown, it means that the terrorists from other countries enter our country to attack. Dems/media cannot allow Bush to be seen as being right on this issue. They are in denial about what enemy we face.
I am seeing some FReepers saying these guys were losers and could not have succeeded. They are wrong. One guy delivered pizzas to Ft. Dix all day long. You don’t think he could have gotten 2-3 guys and weaponry in? Piece of cake. They would have let it right in.
If the MSM didn't...well, then they'd be admitting that there IS a global jihad against the West, and the U.S. in particular....and that the enemy is armed and here!
It’s not murder. It’s terrorism. A murder plot is somebody offing his boss because he hates him or his wife for insurance money. Murder can even be an armed psycho going nuts. But terrorism is an ideologically motivated attack on non-combatants to impose your ideology on them.
This was terrorism. Let’s start calling this what it is.
I think you win the prize.
How they can describe 6 foreign-born persons (one of whom was a US citizen but born and raised in Jordan), 5 of them foreign nationals and three of them illegal immigrants, as “home grown” is utterly beyond me.
It’s folly to try and decipher/understand the irrational....
So what were they charged with, shoplifting?
"We have no indication that they were receiving direction from a foreign terrorist organization," said Justice Department spokesman Dean Boyd. "However, they were engaged in weapons training, surveilled targets and discussed killing large numbers of servicemen, and so that certainly warranted a strong law enforcement response."
It doesn't get any more "Through the Looking Glass" than this.
You just gotta be kidding me.
It wouldn't take 3 or 4 well trained teams of snipers...to put this country in panic mode.
Two morons did just that, in Virgina......
I hate to say it...but I think it will happen sooner or later.
Most all Army Training Commands are lightly guarded...
