Muslims Plant Bombs at New York Temple
I'll come back and fill in more details on this breaking news, but wanted to get it posted:
From news article:
The group allegedly plotted to bomb two New York synagogues and wanted to use surface-to-air missiles to fire at U.S. military planes, said a criminal complaint filed this week in White Plains, New York.
[...]
The four men were arrested Wednesday after they had planted the fake bombs at the synagogue in the Riverdale section of the Bronx, New York, authorities said.
The NYPD used an 18-wheeler truck to block their getaway, then punched out the tinted windows on their sport-utility vehicle before dragging the suspects onto the street, said Kelly.
[...]
During that meeting, Cromitie allegedly said his parents live in Afghanistan, that he was angry over the U.S. war there, and that he was interested "doing something to America."
The four men began meeting with the informant at a home equipped with concealed video and audio equipment, plotting to bomb the synagogue and Jewish community center, the statement said.
They also conducted surveillance, including photographs, of an Air National Guard base where they wanted to blow up planes, the statement said. The informant provided the men with a surface-to-air guided missile and C-4 plastic explosives -- none of which could actually be used.
