Default !!! TERRORIST IN THE US !!! - 06-23-2006, 08:45 AM

Did you hear about those 7 terrorist found plotting to do some damage in Chicago's Sears Tower. They were found in Miami, and one still being hunted down.

[url=http://www.sperryfiles.com/corridor.shtml:15ade]Check this out. It's called the Wahhabi Corridor because of all of the direct and potential links to terrorists that are located down a stretch of Route 7 here in Northern Virginia. I live a few blocks away from some of the locations listed.[/url:15ade]

Some of that is pretty weird. I know some of the links aren't solid evidence, but there is a lot of sketchy stuff. I think I heard that Falls Church, VA (my town) has been the place where they have arrested (and convicted) the highest number of terrorists in the United States. They arrested and convicted a bunch of guys at that Dar Al-Hijrah mosque on the list. It sounds like they are pretty fundamentalist there.

I don't think they would do something to their 'own' town.
But yeah thats weird, I would befriend them, so you know when to bolt.

I could've sworn these terrorists were just one man, that one man being Hob Goblin and Spiderman duking it out in Sizzlers in the Sears tower... oh wait... that was in a dream.

[quote:5d60c]In a BBC news broadcast today, Miami Herald reporter Mani Garcia remarks that the government's arrest of seven men in connection with a 'plot' to blow up the Sears Tower is probably overblown.

"They've been described to us by sources as 'wannabes' -- still to be determined if making a connection about talking about doing an attack and and being able to finance an attack," Garcia said. "We've seen previous cases where the Federal government has announced with great hoopla breaking terrorist cells. And when you start deconstructing a case, you see that there's a lot of talk."[/quote:5d60c]

It's mostly bullshit, sounds more like a bunch of dumb guys trying to scam money.

Edit: The real question is, why didn't they wait until they had purchased explosives or weapons and then make this huge bust of a terrorist cell that was about to commit an act?
