7 Terrorists in Miami - Foiled- Thank you!
The group has been under surveillance for some time and was infilitrated by a government informant who allegedly led them to believe he was an Islamic radical, a Justice Department official said.The group had expressed interest and discussed bombing targets in Miami and the Sears Tower in Chicago, sources familiar with the investigation said.
Sources say the arrests reflect the government’s concern about so-called “homegrown terrorists.” It’s a threat FBI Director Robert Mueller discussed during a recent speech in New York.
FBI arrests 7 in alleged terror plot
Seven people were arrested Thursday in connection with the early stages of a plot to attack Chicago’s Sears Tower and other buildings in the U.S., federal law-enforcement sources told NBC News.
Residents near the warehouse said FBI agents spent several hours in the neighborhood showing photos of the suspects and seeking information. They said the men had lived in the area about a year.
Residents said the men taken into custody described themselves as Mulims and had tried to recruit young people to join their group, which seemed militaristic.
"They slept there" in the warehouse, said Tashawn Rose, 29. "They would come out late at night and exercise. It seemed like a military boot camp that they were working on there. They would come out and stand guard."
She talked to one of them about a month ago. "They seemed brainwashed. They said they had given there lives to Allah," Rose said.
She said they tried to recruit her younger brother and nephew for a karate class but it never happened.
"It was weird," Rose said.
Benjamin Williams, 17, said the group had young children with them sometimes.
"We were under the assumption that they were opening up a garage business," he said, adding that they wore normal clothes "but sometimes they would cover their faces. Sometimes they would wear things on their heads, like turbins."
A man calling himself Brother Corey and claiming to be a member of the group told CNN that the individuals who worship at the building call themselves the “Seas of David.”
Their plan intended to “kill all the devils we can.”
Wild Thing's comment.....
The day this happened (yesterday) I was away all day and was not around to post about this. Maybe it is a good thing, I would have gone ballistic about the comments I have heard being made how the FBI has to defend themselves and how touchie feelie the media is being toward these terrorists. Shocking is not even close to how I feel about the reaction of the media in their response to this.
Now I ask you why on earth is anyone surprised that we have homegrown terrorists! I mean we have allowed Mosques to be on our land, Saudi Universities, Muslim camps, etc. all of these teach hate and more of their Quran teachings from their favorite terrorist of all their Muhammad. I am not surprised one bit only disappointed that the left does not get it and never will. It seems they think that if they speak up and for the terrorists they will be safe and this is simply not reality.
We are at war with Islam and it is as simple and as dangerous as that, dangerous for Islam because we kick ass and our troops deliver the ass kicking most splendidly!

And yet the paper had to say that they had been infiltrated. Why was it necessary to mention that? They wouldn't have mentioned them being infiltrated had it been a drug bust
Also, I like how all the family and friends are saying "They were good boys, etc. etc." Almost time for internment camps.

I am saying there wasn't a plot against the Sears Tower, it was awfully
curious timing for a "raid," wasn't it? After all, the Dems had just
finished making their first somewhat united effort to initiate a troop
withdrawal from Iraq (just disagreeing over the timetable -- with only a few
renegades, like GOP Joe Lieberman). It reminds us of the old days when Tommy
Thompson rolled out a color coded terror alert whenever the Bush
Administration experienced a dip in the polls.
You see, the essence of the Bush Administration efforts to continue waging a
lost war is to tie it to terrorism (even though they created a death trap
for our soldiers by starting the war.) Cheney was just on CNN once again
tying Iraq directly to the "War on Terrorism."
Pray for Israel,

Doc:
Asking you to prove that there "wasn't a plot against the Sears tower" would be vain and useless. Paranoia, in your case, is particularly acute, perhaps chronic. But you persist in your stupidity, connecting two disparate "facts", the first assumed to be true by you (no plot), and the second irrelevant (The Donks "plan") concludes with your truth that the Democrats as a political party can be undermined by the apprehension of terrorists. Some party. Which leads me to...
Your third chant about Tommy Thompson"s terror alerts...it's rooted in the one unfailing quality all you lefties have. Your indestructible sense of your own superiority and perception, combined with the conviction that everyone else is a reflexive idiot. You're particularly transparent in this way, Doc. Let's say, off the rack lefty, nothing special, same old BS. Whatever floats your boat.
Finally, the moral delirium inherent in believing that fighting evil results in more of it (the terrorism superstition all you witch burners have in common), removes you from any serious debate on foreign and defense policy.
I sometimes think you folks have a macro, where, on you keypad with one stroke, you can roll out these fatuities without effort.
What a joke.

"Pray for Israel", but don't support the war against an enemy of Israel??
Your website is, uh, strange. Vanity, opulence, amoral lifestyle, showcasing your wealth and complaining people only appreciate your wealth. You are a weirdo!

So this crackpot, "Dr.Goldblatt", professes faith? Then what's with the booty in the air pic? The cleavage shot? Various other inappropriate pics for a "person of faith"? The self-aggrandizing dialogue? I smell hypocrite at best, liar at worst. Call the sheepdog, I smell a wolf in sheeps clothing. Also, most of what passes for comment is paranoia, and comments aren't allowed from what I could see. Scared of discourse "Doc"?
