“Loewen told the undercover employee he was waiting for what he called ‘the green light’ from Allah to carry out a violent attack on a civilian target.” Whether his bloodthirsty faith has been shaken by this big red light from Allah has not been reported.
“Kansas Man Sentenced in Plot to Explode Car Bomb at Wichita Mid-continent Airport,” InfoZine, September 1, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Kansas City, MO – infoZine – Terry Lee Loewen, 60, pleaded guilty on June 8 to one count of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction. Loewen was arrested in December 2013 when he tried to enter the grounds of the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport for the purpose of exploding a bomb. (The airport was recently renamed the Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport).
In his plea, Loewen admitted he came to the attention of the FBI late in May 2013 when he became a Facebook friend of a person who was posting comments advocating violent jihad. The FBI began communicating with Loewen through an undercover employee. After Loewen expressed his desire to engage in violent jihad, the undercover employee offered to introduce him to someone who could help him do it.
Loewen told the undercover employee he was waiting for what he called “the green light” from Allah to carry out a violent attack on a civilian target. He said that he did not expect to live through any of the attacks he had in mind. Loewen also said that he was inspired by the teachings of Osama bin Laden and Anwar Al Awlaki, and that he had downloaded thousands of pages of information on jihad.
In September 2013, Loewen sent photos of airplanes on the tarmac at the Wichita airport. He commented that he could have “walked over there, shot both pilots … slapped some C4 on both fuel trucks and set them off before anyone even called TSA.”
In October 2013, Loewen met with a second undercover FBI employee who Loewen believed was a “brother” and would help him blow up a plane. Loewen said that he had scouted the airport to determine a time and place for an attack that would be sure to kill as many people as possible.
Loewen assisted the second FBI employee in the final assembly of an improvised explosive device. He was not aware that the explosive materials used in the device were inert. In the early hours of Dec. 13, 2013, the second FBI employee picked up Loewen at a Wichita hotel. They drove to where the bomb was stored and finished wiring the device. When they reached the airport, Loewen used his badge twice at a card reader to attempt to get onto the tarmac before he was arrested….

Kansas: Muslim gets 20 years for jihad bomb plot at Wichita airport
…………………………..
Well, it’s a start–at least they didn’t send him to “rehab”..
By the way, I wonder what Terry Lee Loewen’s Muslim name is? Authorities in Kansas have apparently refused to release it–no doubt because some of us “filthy Islamophobes” might then assume that his Jihad terrorist plot might have something to do with Islam…
Angemon says
20 years of state-sponsored prison dawah and “special needs”. Bah, at least he’s not out there with the civilian population, waiting to blow…

Loewen said “he had downloaded thousands of pages of information on jihad”.
However, our world leading politicians (like John McCain) assure us Loewen missed the ‘peaceful teachings’ of Islam.
And who knows Islam more? People who read thousands of pages about Islam? Or people who read ZERO pages about jihad?

“And who knows Islam more? People who read thousands of pages about Islam? Or people who read ZERO pages about jihad?”
Oh, Mortimer, you’ve done it again! You’ve presented the question that no politician will dare answer and that no journalist will dare ask . . . which begs the question . . . why not?
Jay Boo says
Is that a call to prayer that I hear, or is it yet another Muslim howling at the moon.
Cecilia Ellis says
One and the same.
Baucent says
Full credit to the FBI operative who successfully passed himself of as a “brother”, but it shows the huge commitment in man hours to stop one wanna Jihadi. Now multiply the number of Jihadis by the thousand and the job of identifying isolating and arresting becomes an impossible task.
navnlos says
Especially when the irresponsible media are broadcasting their tactics to the world.
BC says
Was he an employee at the airport as he had a badge which gave him access? This is not clear.
Pig Jizya says
He should have gotten life.
RG says
He’s already had a chance at “life” and he blew it. I say, ‘he should have gotten death’!
