FBI, NYPD Arrest 4 in Alleged Plot to Bomb NY Synagogues
NBC New York ^ | May 20, 2009 | Jonathan Dienst

Posted on 05/20/2009 6:55:16 PM PDT by Sergeant Tim

EXCLUSIVE: Four New York City men were arrested Wednesday in connection with an alleged plot to blow up New York City synagogues and other city locations, WNBC's Jonathan Dienst has learned.

Raids by the FBI-NYPD Joint Terrorist Task Force in the Bronx captured the suspected ringleader and three followers in what law enforcement sources are calling a homegrown terrorist plot.

Investigators stress the suspects' meetings had been infiltrated early on and there was "no chance" the alleged plot could succeed.

Investigators said several of the suspects are Muslims who allegedly talked about destroying two Jewish temples, including at least one in the Riverdale section of the Bronx.

The men ordered and accepted delivery of materials they believed were bomb-making ingredients, authorities said. But investigators said they made sure the materials the suspects received were inert. Officials tell WNBC they moved in now so the alleged plot could not progress any further.

The four men are in custody and are expected to be arraigned Thursday in White Plains federal court on terrorism-related counts.

Seven out of five reporters are bad at math.

They are apparently prison converts to islam.

Most of these sorts of plots aren’t cooked up by Jews or Christians. In addition to the plots themselves, what people on FR object to is the media malpractice of typically leaving out that salient little detail in their descriptions of these perps. Some of today’s articles have mentioned it, others have bent over backward to camoflage that fact.

I’d think the muslim community would be eager to confront and challenge this radicalism publically if they are such a “peaceful” religion as has been stated time and time and time again.

But what we’re likely to see is CAIR throwing a fit about these plotters being “targeted because they’re muslims”.

Americans across the country are getting sick and tired of being bashed by CAIR and their thugs too, mister.

Did they come from here?

Or are they product of the prison system, a ratsnest of muslim infestation?

A great job to all law enforcement agencies involved in taking these scum out. And thank you, President Bush.

It won't be long before one of the Law and Order's rips this off. Of course the Muslim Terrorists will be changed to White Racist Fundamentalist Christians (with obvious ties to the GOP), and the intended Jewish Targets will be changed to Muslims or Gays.

But other then that it will be “Ripped from the headlines!”.

And yet I had to come home to FR to find out the perps were muzzys. None of the NPR or lamestream media would tell me
that they were from the religion of peace.

Obama will see that they get off easy.

Let’s see, now. ‘Several’ of the FOUR suspects are Muslims. How many is ‘several’ if the total is four?

Another report said three of the suspects are ‘radicalized recent converts to Islam’. So, the 4th is an Episcopalian?

What absolutely awful reporting.

“I’d think the muslim community would be eager to confront and challenge this radicalism publically if they are such a “peaceful” religion as has been stated time and time and time again.”

Apparently, in this case, the Muslim community did. A Muslim was an FBI informant for a year, helping build the case against these jackasses

I am sure they got this information by “talking” to them and treating them like our equal and telling them our new President understands Muslims because he is like you.

I am sure that made them feel special and then that made them feel guilty and they just confessed what they were doing.

Doesn’t everyone now feel better since we did not have to result to violence.

Credit where it’s due. I was speaking about the muslim community becoming and remaining publically vocal against radicalism, though.
