A Virginia man has been arrested for allegedly trying to help Al Qaeda plan multiple bombings around the nation's capital, according to U.S. officials.
Farooque Ahmed, 34, of Ashburn, Va., was arrested today by the FBI and charged with providing material support to terrorists and collecting information for a terrorist attack.
“It’s chilling that a man from Ashburn is accused of casing rail stations with the goal of killing as many Metro riders as possible through simultaneous bomb attacks,” said Neil MacBride, the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. “Today’s arrest highlights ... our ability to find those seeking to harm U.S. citizens and neutralize them before they can act."
I guess Mr. MacBride "chills" easily.
The fact that someone named FAROOQUE AHMED would target innocent civilians isn't chilling by any means. It's expected, mmkay?
Nowhere in the article does it mention the status of Mr. Raghead's citizenship or place of birth so we're left to guess. Great way to report the news, fella's. And by the way, Mr. MacBride, stop patting yourself on the back just for a moment, and tell us again how hard it is to find a moslem wanting to to do harm to America.
