From the Daily News:The FBI and NYPD busted a four-man homegrown terror cell Wednesday night that was plotting to blow up two Bronx synagogues while simultaneously shooting a plane out of the sky, sources told the Daily News.
The idea was to create a "fireball that would make the country gasp," one law enforcement said.
Little did they know the plastic explosives packed into their car bombs and the plane-downing Stinger missile in their backseat were all phony - supplied by undercover agents posing as Pakistani militants linked to Al Qaeda.
The suspects - three U.S.-born citizens and one Haitian immigrant - at least three of whom were said to be jailhouse converts to Islam, were angry about the deaths of Muslims in Afghanistan, sources told The News.
I can't think of more appropriate news as we head into Memorial Day weekend.
But in this case we should let the guy go with a warning...

That great superstition of "peace and justice" strikes again.
Why do we allow proselytizing in our jails?
Robert Lopez and his bundle of fake dynamite occurred during the Bush administration, when terror was a real problem, that concerned the serious adults in the US. Or, at least that's what the Bush lies wanted us to believe.
Now Obama is President, he appointed Janet Napolitano as Homeland Security Director. Instantly, she announced that there is no more terror - that was a Bush fear-mongering lie. Now there is something called "man-caused disaster - MCD", and the perpetrators (people who facilitate man-caused disasters - PWFMCD) of this are pro-lifers, returning Iraqi veterans, supporters of Ron Paul who place bumperstickers supporting him on their car.
So. What does that all mean?
It means the FBI invented this story to embarrass Obama, who eliminated all terror on January 21. Notice how the FBI says that they "prevented" the disaster. That's another way of saying "nothing happened, but now Obama and Napolitano have to answer some questions".
Who provided the fake Stinger? And the fake plastic explosives?
As for Lopez, let him rot in jail forever. He plotted his fake terror under Bush. We all know that Bush lied about everything. So, the likely story here is that Bush and Lopez plotted this terror together so as to keep Bush in office forever. Lopez would have been appointed warden of the prison he would be in forever.
Bush had the world furious at us all the time. Obama came and now there is peace on earth, and all nations love the US.
This is why we need one man rule under socialism. We need government to take care of every problem we face. Every problem. We don't need the constant confusion stemming from a free people electing their own government officials. We don't need to listen to the confusing debating and negotiations that a free people persist in having.
Obama has already demonstrated that he never lies or even exaggerates. Never fails to design a perfect policy to solve each problem he faces. He knows that money is the root of all evil, so he is planning to remove it from the hands of free citizens so that there will be no more evil.
Obama is all glory forever! We can now eliminate Easter Sunday!
Two points
Independent media in Broolyn covered this. If it was Queens, they would have run to boro hall for comment and the locals would have backed away from this guy because he disturbed the boro's placid (or should we say mind deadening) landscape.
Hispanic. Maybe another reason why the machine favors people like this: easy to push around. Contrast his experience with the white guy in Manhattan that had a similar problem that stayed what it was - a tempest in a teapot.
glad they busted thesse bastards and i don't believe for a moment its a set up. we don't need more shit to happen in new york and i'm grateful the fbi and nyp stopped it.
hey who's the hottie fbi guy, lol.. god bless america!
If the authorities didn't supply these individuals with dummy explosives I think they would have probably sat on their front porches talkin' about how much they hate jews and figuring out someway to collect government subsidized handouts.
These were petty thieves, the dumbest and most annoying of the bunch; they've probably pinched ipods or cigarettes.
If they try to go to trial, their lawyers will argue entrapment, but the jury will be too annoyed with them to listen.
Good riddance regardless.
Dummies can always be enabled if they speak to the right people. Don't forget, the first world trade bombing included people so stupid that they would try to get their rental car deposit back.
Taxpayer, you've overextended yourself again. Every time you rant on and on and on, you get your message all garbled. Clarity and brevity are your best friends.
Waterboarding is torture? I'll tell you what real torture is. Slitting the eyeballs of a flight attendant while you are hijacking an airplane. That's right.
SLITTING HER EYEBALLS. Now, you know what we are up against.
OBAMA, HANDS OFF GITMO!
Hey, they aren't Terrorists - they are "Man Made Disasterists", or that's sexist, so it should be "Person Made Disasterists"
"Dummies can always be enabled if they speak to the right people."
How does one enable dummy plastic explosive? It's inert, like clay. And the stinger can be made a dummy in many ways.
Am glad to see NYers still appreciating the danger these "overseas contingency operators" are. Sadly this will barely be found in the MSM. Most people do not realize that the US has thwarted something like 12 such operations, and these are the ones that we are told about.
While H is busy taking over the car industry and anything else he feels like, these people are still a threat. But you won't hear much about it as they would interfere with his facist agenda with much more "dangerous" problems like globull warming.
Update from the Boston MA area -
Monitored all three local TV noon news and all mentioned this.
Two of the three spent about 15 seconds and never mentioned the religion of peace and basically said nobody was ever in danger. They basically blew it off.
WBZ-TV did a decent 1 to 2 minute piece and covered a lot of details including religion etc...
Problem is, if the networks are watched equally, 2/3rd of the voters in the MA area have no clue about this event. Might explain why Kerry and Kennedy and Franks and Markey et al keep getting re-elected.
Thank you Mr. Literal. May I suggest that you invest in a Dictionary of Colloquial English?
Obviously, I am using the pejorative term "Dummies" to refer to people of limited intelligence, not vetriloquist's tools, clothing forms or engineering mock-ups, to state several other possible meanings of the word.
Thank goodness obtuseness is your friend.
I stand corrected.
Was thinking that with the average knowledge of military equipment being extremely poor, you were going in another direction. Rereading your post I know see what you meant.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME??
Did any of you idiots even read the articles about this "terror" plot?
You had the FBI infiltrate a group that included a crack addict and a schizophrenic.
They spent a YEAR, that a YEAR investigating this "terror" cell before they even offered to give them fake bombs. What in God's name were they doing for that year? Sharing crack pipes?

The FBI also says that were "100% in control of the process" which means they the FBI chose the synagogue as the target.
In fact, if you read the AP article, and if you read ever so slightly between the lines, the "terror" suspects express "disappointment that the World Trade Center isn't still here." So they in fact DIDN'T want to bomb a synagogue.
The only question I have about this is what the fuck the FBI was doing wasting my tax money investigating these losers. It took them a year even to get hands on a fake bomb and that fake bomb was given to them by the FBI agents on the sting operation.
He was indicted on charges of “placing a false bomb or hazardous substance” in the first degree, a felony that carries up to four years in prison.
+++++++++++++
what about the 1 that tossed it into the garbage? Why no charges to her ?
total bs.
P.S. apparently someone neglected to take their meds 1 hour before going on-line.
The FBI also says that were "100% in control of the process" which means they the FBI chose the synagogue as the target.
Feel free to justify this statement.
Why catch Osama Bin Laden when you can settle for some crackheads from Brooklyn?
My heart doesn't bleed for any of them. So they are not geniuses. With their vicious hatreds they could easily find some Jews on the street to knife or shoot.
I find it very hard to believe that something didn't attract law enforcement to these jackasses in the first place.
Let's hope next time, they catch some bigger fish. In the meantime, prison or a nuthouse will do these guys some good.
