Terror Arrests in Fort Dix Plot FORT DIX, N.J.
May 8, 2007 - Six ethnic Albanians have been arrested in a plot to storm the Fort Dix installation in Burlington County.
Five of the suspects were arrested in Cherry Hill. They will be arraigned later today in federal court. Officials say it will happen in either in Camden or Newark.
Investigators say the suspects planned to use automatic weapons to storm the base and kill solders. The men were lured into a secret meeting to purchase AK-47s from an arms dealer, who was secretly cooperating with the FBI.
Officials say the suspects worked on a number of targets, including the Dover Air Force Base in Delaware, Fort Monmouth in Eatontown, and several Coast Guard stations.
Federal agents made the arrests when the suspects zeroed in on Fort Dix.
Officials say some of the suspects were caught on tape.

A tip helped authorities arrest six New Jersey men Monday night in connection to an apparent terror cell, according to NBC 10’s sister station WNBC in New York.
Five of them were arrested in Cherry Hill, according to reports.
Investigators said the men planned to use AK-47s to storm Fort Dix and open fire on soldiers and civilians stationed at the New Jersey base, noting that other military locations were scouted by the terrorist cell.
Three of the unnamed suspects are brothers who are all believed to be Islamic radicals, according to sources. Some of the six arrested men were also born in Albania and the former Yugoslavia, but they have spent a significant amount of time in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, according to authorities.

NEW YORK -- Six men from New Jersey have been arrested in an alleged terror plot against soldiers at Fort Dix, according investigators.
Investigators said the men planned to use automatic weapons to enter Fort Dix and kill as many soldiers as they could at the N.J. base. Fort Dix was just one of several military and security locations allegedly scouted by this group, authorities said.
Investigators told Newschannel 4's Jonathan Dienst that these arrests are the result of a tip to the FBI and use of an informant to track the suspects. The terror suspects traveled over the last several months from New Jersey to the Poconos where they practiced firing automatic weapons, investigators said.
Investigators said the group discussed targeting numerous locations like Dover Air base, Fort Monmouth and several Coast Guard stations before deciding on Fort Dix as their intended target. Fort Dix is run in part by the Army and is a reserve-training center, but active units take part in training, including some which focuses on counter-terrorism....
The Albanian Muslims loved Clinton after he bombed Christian Serbia for months. That said, at least the Serbs only had to contend with Weasly Clark -- instead of Janet "Fireball" Reno.
Yup. The REMF mentality at work.
HTF is someone who is here illegally, a home grown terrorist?
Someone send help, I’m running out of duct tape and the Paoli hardware has cut me out of their delivery service!
Think of the sympathy spin vote that can be obtained from the car accident
You have to be kidding me. What has Corslime done here for us that he can even dream of running? I have NO sympathy for him whatsoever. He should have been obeying the law & wearing a seat belt and NOT speeding. In what year is he planning this, 08? Shaking my head even more now...
Doesn’t seem to want to let me search since I’m not a registered user so I’m not sure how you got the link
CNN - Fort Dix speeds up relocation of Kosovo refugees - June 6, 1999
Anyone from that area know the name of the pizza shop mentioned or that of the mosque these people frequented? I think we need a grass roots project to photograph anyone attending a mosque in this country.

Nah. They were just out to have a good time.
I believe there is an air show at McGuire AFB (same place at Ft. Dix) this coming weekend, I wondering it that might have been their target.
Yes and we continue their insane policies now!
That’s it. They were Bosnian rednecks. “Hold muh beer and watch this, Mohammed!”
...But it's Bush's fault anyway.

Just a cell of disaffected youths. Yep.
Oh joy...well at least I scare someone lol. I would really like to have a say in Bush bringing anymore of these kooks into this country. I don’t want them. I don’t know anyone who does...All we are doing is bringing it into our country. I really just have had it with Muslims, homegrown terrorists and kooks in general. ~P~
