Breaking: Homegrown Islamic Terrorists Arrested In NY Bombing Plot
Email This Post
Mary Katherine Ham of the Weekly Standard has the scoop:
The FBI busted a homegrown terror cell late Wednesday night as the men sneaked around a Jewish temple in Riverdale planting what they thought were packages of C-4 explosives, sources told the NY Daily News. The four men also allegedly had what they believed were working Stinger surface-to air missiles in their car: officials said they wanted to shoot down a plane near Stewart Air National Guard Base. Holy crap, holy crap.
All of the men arrested are U.S. born. The threat from homegrown jihadists is VERY real in the U.S.- there are dozens and dozens of rural compounds that serve as training camps for these terrorists. Known Islamic compounds (which are likely training areas) exist in the U.S.- in upstate New York (Islamberg), Dover, TN., as well as many other parts of the country (list). They operate with impunity inside our own nation.
Ham says the four men were arrested after a year long investigation that began when an informant connected to a mosque in Newburg said some militants wanted to buy explosives. After being tipped to the activity, FBI agents posing as militants sold the terrorists fake C-4 explosive material and the fake missile. NYPD reportedly boxed in a black SUV outside one of the temples while the terrorists were going about setting their fake bombs. A 24 move! Sweet!
The arrested:
Alleged ringleader James Cromitie of Newburgh, the son of an Afghan immigrant and his wife. Cromitie served a long stretch in prison in the past. Alleged henchmen David Williams, Onta Williams and Leguerre Payen were busted with him. Sources said the three were jailhouse converts to Islam.
This is absolutely the MO of the domestic Islamic terrorist organizations operating in the U.S. today- many are converts from prison, often with lengthy rap sheets. They are taught guerilla tactics and to “befriend” infidels before killing them as the Quran mandates. Excellent work by law enforcement. Sadly, this is just the tip of the iceberg. At least Congress got it right and refuses to fund the closing of Gitmo and the moving of incarcerated terrorist suspects to American soil. We have enough here already.
