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.

Terror Suspects Arrested In N.J. After FBI Foils Fort Dix Attack

UPDATED: 7:31 am EDT May 8, 2007

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....

“Three of the unnamed suspects are brothers who are all believed to be Islamic radicals,”

They must be mistaken, it was probably those crazed Lutherans again.

But seriously, when will people get their heads out and realize that radical Islam is a disease.

"Are you being sarcastic?"

Yes and no. One year from now, when these terrorists are still sitting in jail while our government tries to decide whether to prosecute them in a state, federal or military court, my comments were geared toward anticipating the liberal Democrat anti-America line...

Because everybody knows where the real evil lies. George Bush is using the military to run a concentration camp for the "real victims" of U.S. agression. Those poor, poor Freedom-loving insurgents, if we'd only just leave them alone...

Oops, there I go again...

History has shown the true nature of islamic terrorists for centuries. Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it. No amount of liberal PC MSM lunacy can change historical facts.

Foul! Foul! We can't have racial profiling!!! /s

If their names were Muhomad, Mohoumad, Mahamad, Abbdual, Abadal and Abdul, it would be profiling for sure.

I'm sure all the suspects' names were either James, John, Henry, Bob, Robert, Bill and Jack.
