Man Arrested In Sting Operation For Intending To Blow Up Pentagon, Capitol
Diversion time. According to The Hill, in an elaborate sting/entrapment operation, the FBI arrested Rezwan Ferdaus for plotting to use drone airplanes loaded with C4 explosives and fly them into the Pentagon and Capitol. Ferdaus was made to believe he was working with members of al Qaeda, who were
actually undercover agents. From The Hill: "According to the DOJ, Ferdaus aimed to create a devastating psychological impact with the attacks, saying at one point, “I just can't stop; there is no other choice for me." "Although Ferdaus was presented with multiple opportunities to back out of his plan, including, being told that his attack would likely kill women and children, the affidavit alleges that Ferdaus never wavered in his desire to carry out the attacks,” reads a DOJ press release." It is ironic how every time there is a major drop in the market or the president's rating reaches new lows we are reminded just how profoundly everyone overestimates their security, and supposedly liberty, in this (once) greatest country on earth.
More:
Ferdaus allegedly gave the undercover FBI agents a detailed set of
attack plans “with step-by-step instructions as to how he planned to
attack the Pentagon and Capitol,” according to the Department of
Justice.
Ferdaus, a Northeastern University graduate with a degree in physics,
allegedly visited Washington, D.C., in May, taking pictures of his
intended targets and proposed launch-sites for the remote-controlled
aircraft, according to the DOJ.
Ferdaus’s plan allegedly evolved
to include a “ground assault” as well, in which six people would
coordinate an automatic weapons attack with the aerial assault and
massacre whoever came into their path, according to the DOJ.
For
the past five months, Ferdaus has allegedly been stockpiling the
equipment he needed for his proposed attack, including a remote
controlled aircraft, 25 pounds of fake C-4 explosives, six automatic
AK-47 assault rifles and three grenades, according to the DOJ. He
allegedly kept all of it in a storage facility in Massachusetts, where
he was arrested.
Next steps: discover your inner patriotic E-Trade baby and buy, buy, buy stocks. That. And stay away from D.C.

dumb ass
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, who know these days what is true and what is false.
Let's be clear about this:
Every day (literally: Every day) we are presented with data from Federal authorities which is either proved to be false at a later date, or data which is obviously false immediately to anyone who isn't mathematically challenged. We the People, are lied to constantly and unwaveringly by authorities who believe that "stability" is more important than truth. This is not opinion. It is fact. One only has to turn back the pages of "official news" for a few weeks, months or years to see the vast divergence between public statements and the historical facts as we later understood them.
We have heads of State who lie. We have Federal agencies that lie. We have the head of the ECB saying "When it gets serious you have to lie".
And now we are presented with information about a man who intended to blow up the Capitol -- and we have no evidence other than the words of ....wait for it.... Federal authorities.
I'm sorry: No.
For all I know, this guy is guilty of posessing evidence dangerous to the banking cartel and he's being framed. Is that a tinfoil theory? Or is the theory that the Federal government is telling the truth even more preposterous?
The best part of this, which is left out of the above story:
3 squares a day, work out time, health care, he's set! maybe the occasional dick in his ass, but who said nanny state coverage was perfect?
Recently a top US military official made a statement that the biggest threat to America, is its debt.
Every person who serves in the military vows to protect the US from threats both domestic and foreign.
Well take a guess at who is the largest holder of US debt and then you will know what this military official was getting at!
Banks?
China?
I'll tell you how this went down.. The FBI got ahold of a muslim (one of the not so smart ones).. Made him feel like part of a plan, a team, a cause.. Then gave him the idea of a drone attack.. then supplied him with everything he needed, then busted him.. That's how every fucking one of them have gone down.. Our government is a bunch of fucking lying pieces of shit..
They probably found this guy doing dinner theater in Oklahoma and offered him a sweet deal. The acting job of his dreams.
Once volumetric holography technology becomes viable, the government is going to start giving us virtual reality threats a la S1mone.
Nah. Word is, he was selling Christmas trees in Portland. Before that, novelty Christmas underwear in Detroit. Before that, novelty shoes in London. Good thing he keeps in contact with his "spiritual leader" Anwar al-Awlaki....
I'm with you on this Max - the "Xmas tree bomber" comes to mind. . .
"Mohamed Osman Mohamud, who is accused of plotting to bomb a Portland, Ore., Christmas tree lighting ceremony, was not entrapped by FBI agents, says US Attorney General Eric Holder"

gotta justify the massive expense and loss of personal "rights" to big gov. not to mention, keep folk on the edge of their seats and divert attention from the ongoing looting. . . remember, November is an "eleven" month in an "eleven" year.
"...Ferdaus was presented with multiple opportunities to back out of his plan..."
He is entrusted with information regarding a conspiracy to commit multiple crimes, and in a position to potentially compromise any "legit" criminal organization, and perhaps its operatives. Are we to believe that he was told, that it would be OK, if he wanted to just walk away? No strings attached, just don't tell anybody? Are we to believe, under such circumstances he would not have immediately questioned the motives, and/or honesty of his new "friends" if they weren't very persuasive in their offer?
The flip side is there was an "offer he could not refuse." At that point, who in their right mind would refuse when one of those paths offers 72 virgins? What am I missing here (Other than being blinded by the depths of cynicism)? Are terrorist cells that much of a firewall, that it is reasonable to expect they would just let someone walk?
To much double jeapardy for me today.

Actually,being a muslim,"Made him feel like part of a plan, a team, a cause".
Coincident to all other instances of Islamic violence, over the last 1400 years,of course.

And if some guy getting entrapped into a scheme to try and do damage to the Pentagon with a Hobby Shop model airplane wasn't bad enough (to be honest, entrapment is a very high legal standard to prove, but I digress), New Zealand is about to encounter major difficulty funding bank operations, or they have already (just like the whole of Europe, which is now unquestionably on the wires with the Fed & Benny & The Ink Jets daily), and Mosaic missed big:
09-28 16:29: RBNZ Governor Bollard says NZ bank funding could become a problem
09-28 16:29: Mosaic (MOS) Q1 EPS USD 1.17 vs. Exp. USD 1.29Well, they should know, after all.
Please take a look at the graph at the top of page 366 in David Graeber's book, Debt: the first 5,000 years.
Worth the price alone. (One-to-one correlation over 50 plus years --- growth in US defense budget, growth in national debt.)
Arrest the Bernank (and all Federal Reserve Presidents). Shave the Bernank's beard and make him do the perp walk. Try him for sedition in federal court, and flip him, by making a deal to forego seeking the death penalty (treason is a capital offense) in exchange for all his notes, computer files and all other information regarding the whos, whats, whens and wheres of how he is directed.
Careful the Bernanke is watching you. eeeeeewwwwwww!
@deadpool-you consistently chime in on government propaganda. Nobody with half a brain believes this shit as anything other than a false flag. People like you spreading your gov't lies are the real fucking problem here.
GFY.
Deadpool (a 4 week member of ZH) is a BAC drone sent over here, much like RoboRearViewTarder & HamWang, to troll.
Because BAC doesn't have anything better to do with their money, apparently, than pay him minimum wage.
I just thank God every day for the complete and total economic collapse of the USA so the government agencies will be cut off from the money to stage, host, and take advantage of retarded people.

“I want the public to understand that Mr. Ferdaus’ conduct, as alleged in the complaint, is not reflective of a particular culture, community or religion. In addition to protecting our citizens from the threats and violence alleged today, we also have an obligation to protect members of every community, race, and religion against violence and other unlawful conduct.”
Is everyone as sick of this ass kissing politcal PC bullshit as I am..............good LORD.
It's beyond SICKENING.
That statement alone screams "not guilty."
If the guy actually did what they claim he did, they wouldn't act so PC.
yeh sure. we all can get drones and we all can get c4 ......gads.........is that all they got? what bullshit............ha ha ha
Fool didn't even know what C-4 tastes like?
Loser.
He probably tasted it, and DIDN'T get the shits....
I just hope they stick with the provocateur nonsense and don't pull another false flag. Tricking some idiots into packing their undi's with firecrackers, or trying to blow up a tree lighting ceremony with sawdust, are much easier on my stomach. Frankly I'm expecting some Mumbai style fuckheads to run around a mall or school, based on the Denver drills of late. No doubt passports will immediatly appear, indicting a desired non Rotschild cartel country, or maybe they blame homegrown white americans.
I think that's the next step for the criminal feds. False flag attacks blamed on white christian americans to take away the 2nd ammendment. Paint the picture of white al qaeda, and make anyone that questions the ponzi/fed reserve system into a domestic terrorist. Too bad the majority of us are waking up to the government bullshit, fear pushing, problem reaction solution garbage.
Play Doh-Oh?
Homer Simpson of anarchy.
Yeah, the coup de gras would be if they could frame the Tea Party as terrorists, and set up a Tim McVeigh type of guy with Alleged tea party connections.
Outstanding points, Popo, although I disagree with your assertion:
"..is obviously false immediately to anyone who isn't mathematically challenged."
I would rephrase that to "arithmetically challenged" instead.
Also, this whole story is suspect because we all recall what occurred on 9/10/01 and the next day on 9/11/01:
The Pentagon's comptroller declared $2.3 trillion unaccounted for, and the very next morning Flight 77 crashes into the Pentagon, killing almost the entire financial management group of the Defense Intelligence Agency. (Lucky for that one woman manager that they had sent out the e-mail at 2:00 AM on 9/11/01, and she overslept that day and received too late.)
The only two things I'm sure of: Richard Bissell was fired from the CIA by President Kennedy, and his grand-nephew, Robert Mueller, was reappointed to the FBI directorship by Obama.
Which is also suspect......

very nicely said.
How many terrorist threats on American soil have not involved FBI agents egging someone on to commit the act. I can think of one fool's attempt to blow his shoe and another fool who set off what amounted to a smoke bomb in Times Square. Ask your Mexican gardener how secure the US borders are and then wonder why Al Qaeda hasn't been able to pull off a single attack. There are only a limited number of possibilities as to why.
Al Qaeda hasn't been able to pull off an attack for the same reason that Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy haven't been able to pull off an attack.
True or not, the uncertainty which is caused per your post can be seen, for example, when the college kid allegedly tried to blow up Pioneer Square in Downtown Portland, OR - Even in Portland it was just kind of like "eh" because there is no way to really know what happened given the lack of trust which our government has earned, especially as it relates to "terrorism" matters. When someone alledgly tries to bomb your downtown and the people don't even seem worried about it that tells you the level of trust, there is no commentary needed.
see, there is a boogy man, so we need to spend another decatrillion dollars. i feel safer already
I'll bet he's a Ron paul supporter, They're the real terrorists, you know -they want to pull the plug on the banksters.
Uhhhhh, you're just now figuring this out?
-Chumblez.
The news I heard even admitted that the FBI loaned him the money to buy supplies. He's probably just another patsy, set up and duped by federal authorities so they can justify their budgets and huge bureaucracy which "protects" us. Meanwhile, let's all agree, the world will be a safer place if we get our genitals fondled more often at random checkpoints. We also need dogs sniffing our butts for hidden explosives. Hometown America - the new Abu Ghraib; learn to love it.
Thank you dot gov for saving me once again. You have my consent to double the military budget, and put a video camera and microphone up everyone's ass.
Now I will gratefully vote for Obama and go back to my favorite hobbies, the shopping network and all you can eat buffets.
Does seem that way. It may be "Revelation" coming to pass.
I'll bet the media starts saying this guy is an avid Ron Paul supporter, hates the Fed, thinks the 9/11 investigation was a cover-up, strongly supports the second amendment, hates having his balls groped by the TSA, etc...
They'll hold that one until closer to election day.
This is your run-of-the-mill jihadist with an idiotic plan. They're just trying to create the same effect that Bush used to when he would raise the threat level to a more menacing shade of orange.
but for the FBI facilitating this guy, his anger does no where....
Ding ding ding. What better way to catch a terrrrrist than to make one.
pods
Make one wonder how many of these morons they are grroming and holding in reserve as "part of an ongoing investigation into terrorist sleeper cells." 100? 500? 5000? They have the budget to keep a ton of these suggestible yahoos on ice until they need a headline.
Guess what. Everyone here that can string more than three words together - and not spew the same stuff on the boob-tube - is on the suspected terrorist list already. If they don't feel like taking the time to boil your noodle like that Laughner kid or the wannabe-Viking-SEAL in Oslo, they'll just turn you to mush, as in:
"While planting the IED in front of the local <cop shop-courthouse-SS office> Mr./Ms. ZH detonated the <C4-ANFO-Little Boy> he/she made in his/her basement, killing himself/herself and <however many more people on the list they could get to gather at the same time>. Details at 11."
Not going to happen. They'd have to mention Ron Paul and they evidently are afraid of doing that in any context at all.
"...he was made to believe he was working with members of al Qaeda, who were actually undercover agents."
I think they meant to say, "he apparently believed that members of al Qaeda are not actually undercover U.S. agents."
I think it should be said like this "... he was made to believe he was working with members of al Qaeda established/financied by FBI"
"dumb ass"
The 21st letter of the alphabet comes to mind.
"Rezwan Ferdaus" ???
Isn't that the alias for Inspector Anthony Bologna of the NYPD???
That's the guy with the strange fixation to pepper spray young, innocuous females.
What was his home address, again??

i thought his alias was Tony the Phony Baloney who has no Cahones or the Fat Fuck (what a scumbag)
Totaly fake, I dont believe a bit of this story for 1 second. Another 'Al CIAda' terrorist caught yea sure.
I get blowing up the Pentagon might be a problem, but who gives a rat's ass about blowing up the Capitol? Congress approval below 20% anyone?

Because if it DOES, we will be having the Kenya-neysian socialist as a fascist leader, and NO elections. And Martial Law.
There are SO many guns sitting in cabinets and closets of hard working honest Americans who are fed up with this shit, If another false flag is pulled, most of those "speeding lead" machines will be coming out. I figure about 60 gallons of gas will get me to DC. My tanks are stored.
It is about time we marched on DC but this time we go armed to the teeth, this way we will have a lot of respect from the police and that pice of shit obama will hide in his underground bunker crying like the bitch he is
'And stay away from D.C.'
And Wall St, banks, the police, insurance companies, nuclear power-plants, government buildings. The fear index is indicating brown folks.
THis is the best they can do for a terrorist diversion? LARGE model planes.
I'd be willing to bet that they have a whole garden full of sub iq sacrifices like this that they string along until they have a need. Then they just step out back and pick a few for the latest offering.
This idiot was more likely to lose his fingers in the propeller than to do any freaking real damage.

FF? Possibly, but not the most likely answer. Globalization and internet connectedness means the face of warfare is forever changed. Small groups can fight nation-states by disabling supply lines, communications, utilities, etc....and win. It's only just getting started.

It's only a matter of time.
Needless to say...I'll be doing most of my traveling on foot at that point...Regardless of distance.
I don't think it'll come to that. The TSA has little interest in putting their fingers up our asses. Massaging the sphincter, squeezing balls, and patting the labia suits them just fine.
Say, didn't some Dutch cartoonist get death threats from Moslem jihad nuts a few years back for drawing a picture of Mohammed with a turban shaped like a bomb? I guess life really does imitate art. Oh the irony.
