Note that this AP report makes no mention of Islam or jihad. The motive for this plot is completely out of the picture. Imagine a news story about the Duquesne Spy Ring in World War II — a network of German spies in the U.S. — that never mentioned Nazis, Germans, or the war, but pretended that these men were isolated individuals who had taken up spying as a hobby. That’s what this article is, and what most mainstream media articles about jihadist activity are like.

NEW YORK — The father of an airport driver accused of trying to cook up homemade bombs in a Colorado motel for an attack on New York City was charged Monday with trying to get rid of chemicals and other evidence.
FBI agents arrested Mohammed Wali Zazi on Monday at his home in a Denver suburb after a previous charge, lying to the government, was dropped. He had been out on bail.
A new indictment unsealed in federal court in Brooklyn accused Zazi of conspiring with others to destroy or hide “glasses, masks, liquid chemicals and containers” that were evidence in a foiled terrorism plot.
Zazi, the father of suspect Najibullah Zazi, was scheduled to appear in a Denver court Monday. There was no immediate response to a phone message left with his attorney, and the U.S. attorney’s office in Brooklyn, which is leading the investigation, declined to comment.
Prosecutors allege that Najibullah Zazi and others bought beauty supplies in Colorado to make peroxide-based bombs and that he tried to mix the explosives in a hotel room there. In early September he drove to New York, where investigators say they lifted notes on bomb-making from his computer.
Authorities have said they believe Zazi, who was arrested in September, wanted to attack New York’s transit system – something Attorney General Eric Holder called one of the most serious terrorism cases since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001….
