James Cromitie, David Williams, Onta Williams and Laguerre Payen Arrested in Terror Plot against Jewish Synagogues

UPDATE

Maybe this case isn't all it is cracked up to be. Heads will roll if this was a witch hunt on the part of the FBI. Here's an interesting take from Robert Dreyfuss of "The Nation." CLICK HERE

James Cromitie, David Williams, Onta Williams and Laguerre Payen, all of Newburgh, were charged with conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction within the United States and conspiracy to acquire and use anti-aircraft missiles, the U.S. attorney's office said. The FBI arrested the four men earlier today in what authorities called a plot to detonate a bomb outside a Jewish temple and to shoot military planes with guided missiles. These scumbags are a disgrace to the entire human race. Yes, I know they are presumed innocent until proven guilty, but this is a real shame. Why is it that so many black men who go to prison and convert to Islam always end up so bitter against the government and become accessories to the worst possible type of crime against their fellow Americans?

The men had planned to detonate a car with plastic explosives outside a temple in the Bronx neighborhood of Riverdale and to shoot military planes at the New York Air National Guard base at Stewart Airport in Newburgh with Stinger surface-to-air guided missiles, authorities said.

In their efforts to acquire weapons, the defendants dealt with an informant acting under law enforcement supervision, authorities said. The FBI and other agencies monitored the men and provided an inactive missile and inert explosives to the informant for the defendants, a federal complaint said. The investigation had been under way for about a year.

In June 2008, the informant met Cromitie in Newburgh and Cromitie complained that his parents had lived in Afghanistan and he was upset about the war there and that many Muslim people were being killed in Afghanistan and Pakistan by U.S. military forces, officials said. Cromitie also expressed an interest in doing "something to America," they said in the complaint. Source: Huffington Post

I hope they are all denied bond. I just cannot understand how they could become so brainwashed and fall right in step behind a terrorist establishment. There are many decent, law-abiding and hardworking Muslims living in the United States, but scum like this give a bad name to the religion. These thugs claim to be so religious, but really, would Allah tell you to blow up a building with so many innocent people in His name? I don't think so and I hope these four dirtbags don't see the outside of another prison cell for the rest of their lives.
