AP, anxious as ever to deflect the focus from Islamic jihad, in its lead paragraph here explains that Elfgeeh was plotting to kill troops “as vengeance for American actions overseas.” So why did he want to kill Shi’ites as well? As vengeance for Iran being a bitter enemy of his bitter enemy, the U.S.? Obviously Elfgeeh is a Sunni Islamic jihadist who wants to kill members of groups that he considers to be enemies of Islam. But AP will never tell you that.
An update on this story. “Yemeni Accused in Rochester of Plotting to Kill Troops,” Associated Press, June 2, 2014 (thanks to Josh):
ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) – A 30-year-old upstate New York business owner from Yemen who’s accused of plotting to kill members of the U.S. military and others as vengeance for American actions overseas has been arrested on weapons charges.
A federal criminal complaint says Mufid Elfgeeh of Rochester was arrested Saturday afternoon. He’s charged with two counts of receiving and possessing an unregistered firearm silencer. He was to appear Monday before a federal magistrate.
Federal authorities say in court papers that Elfgeeh, a naturalized U.S. citizen, bought two handguns and the silencers as part of a plan to kill members of the U.S. armed forces returning from war as well as Shiite Muslims in western New York.
The FBI says it had been investigating Elfgeeh since early last year.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) – A 30-year-old upstate New York business owner from Yemen …….
Upstate? Should that not be ‘upstart’?
Clown!
James says
“Upstate” refers to the geographic location of Rochester, which is in the upper part of the state.

As a Buffalo native, I know that Rochester and Buffalo are in Western New York (WNY), long the wilderness until the 1825 completion of the Erie Canal, anointing Buffalo with the titles of Queen City of the Great Lakes and Terminus of the Erie Canal.
This does not sound like a WNY type of person.
Must be from ‘somewhere else’…………

What is a WNY type of person?A Native?

Islam ; SANCTIFIED(made holy) RAPE, MURDER, LYING ,PEDOPHILIA in the name of Allah(another name for Satan)
Jay Boo says
Islam was founded by a vengeful hypocrite.
Therefore, we should never be surprised when Muslims follow Muhammad’s pathetic example.

Until the West gives up its multiculturalism and political correctness, evil that is Islam will continue.

Revoke his naturalization, as if the POS should have ever received it. Gitmo has some bed space now.
boakai ngombu says
a naturalized U.S. citizen …
not an “American” though, as he apparently was not willing to give his life to support the Constitution. instead he chose to fight those who do.
SHARIA is not the law of the land. jihad must be disallowed.
the Allah god of Islam (unknowable; the best of all deceivers) does not bring righteousness to any land where it walks. Muhammad (lately contrived; full of lusts) brings only lawlessness and enslavement.
Salah says
“So why did he want to kill Shi’ites as well?”
I think it has something to do with Muhammad’s…private parts!!!

“So why did he want to kill Shiites as well ”
Because they aren’t islamic enough, of course.
The MSM, because they are so wilfully blind, will never, ever recognise the simple fact that islam is a monstrously cannabilastic religion; if it cannot eat it it’s enemies, it will eat it’s ‘friends’.
