In South Carolina, where Mohamed and Megahed have been held in the Berkeley County jail, U.S. Attorney Reginald I. Lloyd praised state and federal authorities for cooperating in the four-week investigation that initially did not look like a terrorism case.

All can do is shake your head at the bureaucratic idiocy that is in abundance.

Technically WMD are chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or explosive (CBRNE) elements. I guess it probably depends on the amount of explosive material they possessed and the potential target(s).

Put them in a small, windowless room and force them to watch the “Head On” commercial 24/7 until they beg to eliminate themselves.

Actually this statute isn't as bad as you think. 18 USC 842 (p):
(p) Distribution of Information Relating to Explosives, Destructive Devices, and Weapons of Mass Destruction.—
 (1) Definitions.— In this subsection—
  (A) the term “destructive device” has the same meaning as in section 921 (a)(4);
  (B) the term “explosive” has the same meaning as in section 844 (j); and
  (C) the term “weapon of mass destruction” has the same meaning as in section 2332a (c)(2).
 (2) Prohibition.— It shall be unlawful for any person—
  (A) to teach or demonstrate the making or use of an explosive, a destructive device, or a weapon of mass destruction, or to distribute by any means information pertaining to, in whole or in part, the manufacture or use of an explosive, destructive device, or weapon of mass destruction, with the intent that the teaching, demonstration, or information be used for, or in furtherance of, an activity that constitutes a Federal crime of violence; or
  (B) to teach or demonstrate to any person the making or use of an explosive, a destructive device, or a weapon of mass destruction, or to distribute to any person, by any means, information pertaining to, in whole or in part, the manufacture or use of an explosive, destructive device, or weapon of mass destruction, knowing that such person intends to use the teaching, demonstration, or information for, or in furtherance of, an activity that constitutes a Federal crime of violence.
This is nothing compared to the gambling information law that the State of Washington passed. It is a class C felony in the State of Washington to transmit or receive gambling information!

Yeah, sure it wasn’t terrorism related. (sarc)

In the FBI’s world, it isn’t terrorism unless a bomb actually explodes.

I guess these guys were planning to blow up a military base that native born Americans are unwilling to blow up.

You realize another terrorist attack is at the end of the planning stages. The supposed terrorist have used christian names when entering the country legally. It’s been said...if and when this attack takes place in a city in the southeast USA...these names will be discovered and the muslim’s will say see it wasn’t islam doing this it was christians.

Perhaps there was much more to this plot than they have revealed so far. Indeed, the computer may tell the tale.

"I would have thrown them out from helicopters.."

There was an often repeated "story" about a Marine Officer who was charged with that exactly, after one of two "uncooperative" prisoners (he believed to be Red Chinese Officers) "fell" from his chopper while hovering high over the tarmac at Da Nang....

Story is the dude bounced twice...

The remaining prisoner suddenly saw the wisdom in becoming cooperative...

Officer was reported, and spent years in Leavenworth - or so the "story" goes...

Did NOT see with my own eyes -- but heard many times and many versions....

Well...I guess technically they are students but one is old enough to have graduated and isn’t the other taking less than enough credits to be in school full time?

WOW STARWISE, you are a jewel, thanks so much for all the additional info you have posted.

And thanks so much for the ping, Miz Sterious, you are appreciated also.

We all knew there was more to this. I want to know what their target (targets) were.

The islamic terrorists are living among us, please be very vigilant everyone.

Absolutely, 110% correct. These two were headed north. They possibly had contacts along the way. God only knows where these two intended to strike. jveritas, it cannot be said too often, The islamic terrorists are living among us, please be very vigilant everyone.

Think everyone, anything suspicious should be reported.

Did the muslim community give up the Ferry Riders, in Washinton State? NO - the muslim community kept those two a secret unto themselves. These people want to hit US hard. Everyone be on your guard, please.
