FBI arrests New York jihad suspect

Two more arrests are expected to occur in New York. An update on this story. "Alleged terror plot suspect arrested at Colorado home," from CNN, September 20:

(CNN) -- FBI agents late Saturday arrested Najibullah Zazi, a 24-year-old Colorado resident and Afghan national questioned in an alleged terrorist plot in the United States.
Zazi and his father, Muhammad Zazi, were handcuffed without incident as authorities raided Zazi's home in the Denver suburb of Aurora, CNN's Jim Spellman reported from the scene. There is no word on what charges both men face.
Two more arrests are expected in New York City, a source close to the investigation told CNN.
One of the individuals interviewed several times by authorities is cooperating, the source said.
Zazi's arrest comes after three days of questioning by the FBI. Zazi declined to attend a fourth day of interviews, his attorney's publicist said.
Zazi has admitted to having ties to al Qaeda, an administration official familiar with the matter told CNN on Friday.

Then he abruptly changed his mind and stopped cooperating.

The alleged terrorist plot, which came to light this week after raids in New York, may have been targeting a major transportation center, like a large railroad or subway station, sources close to the investigation told CNN on Thursday.
There were plans for an attack, presumably in the New York area, where crowds are large and security screening for nonairport travelers is lax, the sources said....

So much for there not being an Islamic threat (aka "manmade disaster").

Given our current leadership, we all need to pray like crazy that the FBI is right about the intentions of these people. If so much as one "T" is not crossed, you'll never see another one attempted.

Look at what the FBI is up against. The mindset of those who let these people into the Country in the first place. Multiculturalism that says we need to tolerate their behavior. A press-corps who are increasingly misleading. With an administration openly hostile now with the CIA, who have had to deal with the worst known terrorists. While at the same time sticking their finger in the eyes of our "Friends"

First it was the Military getting smeared for killing "innocent" Civilians, and Prisoner abuse. Then came the CIA for abusing the scumbags we caught. Now watch how it's done to the FBI.

People wonder why Gun sales are going up as they are.

Somebody better tell Hussein we still have the War on Terror.

The FBI etc are doing a good job detecting terrorists before they act...It's probably not possible to stop all planned attacks, but they get an E for effort...Wonder how long it will take Rasool Obama to screw that up?

This guy has blown himself up tripping over the minefield of lies that he planted with the FBI. Of course, the Obama Doctrine will point out that three days of stiff interrogation has forced this poor entrepreneur of the coffee cart industry to be deluded into thinking he was a terrorist seeking to inflict devastation on the citizens of new York.
