Four losers were arrested for planting what turned out to be fake bombs in order to blow up a Jewish temple and nursing home in Riverdale before going on to shoot down aircraft with a Stinger missile. However, before they could plant these "bombs" these bums were busted -- in the Bronx.
Thank God!
Big victory in the fight against terrorism -- or is it? These morons (who, btw, are not from NYC but from upstate in Newburgh) are four very angry, sad, pathetic men. Apparently they had converted to Islam in prison and became radicalized. What's unclear from all the reports I've read, however, is whether or not these guys had actually planned to commit these acts or were conned into it by this FBI informant.
If these guys were planning terrorist acts and this informant dropped the dime on them, then thank the Lord almighty and this guy is a hero. If, on the other hand, they were convinced into doing these things by this guy, then they're too stupid to remain in society and were justifiably arrested. Still, I get a little quesy when law encforcement goes out of its way to pressure people into almost committing crimes just so they can arrest people. That is, of course, if this was the case.
Anyway, our fair city can rest a little easier tonight.
