NEW YORK (CBS) - Najibullah Zazi, the Denver man believed to be the central figure in a terror plot against the New York City transit system, has officially been indicted on charges of conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction against persons or property in the United States, CBS 2 has learned.

According to the Department of Justice, a federal grand jury in the Eastern District of New York returned a one-count indictment alleging that between Aug. 1, 2008 and Sept. 21, 2009, Zazi knowingly and intentionally conspired with others to use one or more weapons of mass destruction, specifically explosive bombs and other similar explosive devices, against persons or property within the United States. The indictment also alleges that Zazi and others traveled in interstate and foreign commerce, used email and the Internet, and that this offense and the results of the offense would have affected interstate and foreign commerce.

Authorities plan to transfer him to the federal court in Brooklyn to face the new charge.

the headline is deliberately debasing and obfuscating the term WMD, which is just more Bush Derangement Syndrome at work

“Had he been an Obama defender for long? “

In his charming, friendly, understated way he's pointing out that the indictment cites actions the perp is alleged to have done back when Bush was in office- before Obama. So claiming that al Q has started up on US soil because of the Chosen One is in power is inaccurate, since the people in the indictment started operations while W was president.

He's not defending The 0ne at all. He is having fun, though.

The Hope and Change crowd believed that the terrorist would love us when Hussein because President.

Lets pretend I'm a bully. I encounter two people, one who kisses my behind and one who stands up to me. I hate them both. But at least I have some respect for the guy who stands up to me.

Someone posted a link to the US Code definition. “Ordinary” explosives are or can be considered WMD.

They can cause mass casualties.

Haha...what, calling me an “Obama defender” isnt a personal attack? -grin-

Every thread I find them on, I’m gonna mock them. Maybe you admins should start weeding out their stupidity. They’re dragging the whole place down.

And that is the bottom line.

Obama doesn’t have anything to do with Christianity except to hide it and ignore it.

Here is the website for ratical islamic day of prayer: http://islamoncapitolhill.com/Home_Page.html

Each page ends with “Our Time Has Come.” I wonder if obama will be attending with some of his friends from the UN.

That is the place for it. Not on an unrelated FR thread.

OK, but how likely is it that he and his people would have moved forward as they did, if Bush were still in office?

Remember how many attacks there were on Clinton's watch? Weakness invites aggression.

I think it's crystal clear that Obama's words and actions in relation to the WoT and Muslims in general have made lurking terrorists feel much more comfortable with carrying out their plans.

This guy has been here since Bush, but I'm certain that Obama emboldened him.

Enough of the childishness. My objection is that you are far more interested in abusing, insulting and debasing other posters rather than discussing the issues.

Al-Qaeda has been here for more than a decade. Those responsible for 9/11 were living and working in Florida among other places. By the same logic, would you say that 9/11 happened because the terrorists were emboldened by Bush? Or do we want to change the rules and pin that one on Clinton?

This whole Obama "blame game" shtick which cranks up over every piece of negative news is asinine. It makes FR look ridiculous. Serious discussion has gone right out the window.

I'm sure this post will trigger the usual chorus of "Obama lover". It's pathetic.

I agree- these guys might have been emboldened, but that still does not necessarily make it Obama’s Fault.

“Bush's Fault” was a successful meme that dragged his poll numbers down. Applying the same meme to 0bama will hurt him too, but I think that it should be judiciously applied since we get much more scrutiny than moonbats.

0bama’s destructive talk about not supporting Israel's occupation of land since 1967 will be a huge incitement of terror here, in Israel, and elsewhere- that will embolden many more, and that is Obama’s Fault for sure.
