26 Year Old Massachusetts Man, Rezwan Ferdaus Arrested for Terror Plot to Blow Up Capitol & Pentagon

A 26 year old Massachusetts nan, Rezwan Ferdaus, was arrested by the FBI in a terror plot to fly remote control airplanes loaded with C-4 into the Capitol and Pentagon. Ferdaus thought he was working with members of al Qaeda to obtain explosives; however, they were actually undercover FBI agents. Was Feradaus from Yemen, Saudi Arabia or Pakistan … nope, he was a US citizen and a home grown terrorist. Ferdaus was financially  well off and educated at Northeastern University with a graduate with a degree in physics. He began planning to commit violent “jihad” against the US in early 2010.

Ferdaus allegedly gave the undercover FBI agents a detailed set of attack plans “with step-by-step instructions as to how he planned to attack the Pentagon and Capitol,” according to the Department of Justice.

The plans focused on the use of three small remote-controlled drone-like aircraft loaded with C-4 plastic explosives, which he planned to fly into the Capitol and the Pentagon using GPS equipment, according to the DOJ.

Loks like some one has been busy, busy , busy to inflict terrorism upon the USA.

For the past five months, Ferdaus has allegedly been stockpiling the equipment he needed for his proposed attack, including a remote-controlled aircraft, 25 pounds of fake C-4 explosives, six automatic AK-47 assault rifles and three grenades, according to the DOJ. He allegedly kept all of it in a storage facility in Massachusetts, where he was arrested.

Ferdaus was also charged with attempting to provide material support and resources to a foreign terrorist organization — al Qaeda — in order to carry out attacks on U.S. soldiers stationed overseas, federal authorities said.

Ferdaus allegedly modified eight cellphones to act as detonation devices for improvised explosive devices, and gave them to the FBI agents to be used against American soldiers in Iraq.

North Carolina Democrat Gov. Beverly Perdue Says,”Hey, Let’s “Suspend” Elections Until We Fix America” … Oh, I was Just Kidding

SHE SAID WHAT …

North Carolina Governor Beverly Perdue stated at a Rotary Club meeting, “I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won’t hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover.” Huh? Why would any one make a comment such as this where you would comment about suspending elections? American has gone through much worse, with all due respect to the Obama lying machine, than the present economic situation, like the Civil War, WWII, the Great Depression and the Carter years and as opined at Red State … the elections went forward.

File this in the random-things-politicians-say file. Speaking to a Cary Rotary Club today, N.C. Gov. Bev Perdue suggested suspending Congressional elections for two years so that Congress can focus on economic recovery and not the next election.

“I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won’t hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover. I really hope that someone can agree with me on that,” Perdue said. “You want people who don’t worry about the next election.”

The comment — which came during a discussion of the economy — perked more than a few ears. It’s unclear whether Perdue, a Democrat, is serious — but her tone was level and she asked others to support her on the idea.

As stated at Weasel Zippers, upon hearing the Perdue comment, Obama was seen nodding his head like a bobble head doll. Why do we only hear about suspension of elections or a third term when a Democrat in President?

Later in the day when the comment became a “SHE SAID WHAT” moment, her office released the following statement … “Gov. Perdue was obviously using hyperbole to highlight what we can all agree is a serious problem: Washington politicians who focus on their own election instead of what’s best for the people they serve.” Sure, that’s exactly what she meant. HARDLY. How is referencing the suspension of elections and going against the US Constitution a joke or hyperbole?  How does a politician even joke about suspending elections when one of “We the People’s” biggest issues with government is they already have too much power and overstepped their Constitutional authority?

Just curious, why would Gov. Perdue make a comments regarding reelection rather than concentrate on the business at hand of helping fix the US economy. However, we are witness once again to a Democrat that is more concerned about reelection than the present economic nightmare. What’s the matter, afraid to do the right thing? Yet another gutless politician who is afraid they might not get reelected for making tough decisions.

EXIT THOUGHT: Rather than suspending elections, why don’t we just have term limits to all political offices, that will force politicians to do the right thing knowing that their political career is not a lifetime appointment. 71% of Americans believe in term limits, why doesn’t the political class do the will of the People?

Heckler Calls Obama “The Antichrist” At LA Fundraiser Then Dragged Out

Not every one thinks Barack Obama is the Obamamessiah. At a campaign fund raiser for Obama at the House of Blues in Los Angeles, CA, a heckler stood up and called Obama “the Anti-Christ”. He was then dragged out of the event, see pic at the Gateway Pundit.

From Real Clear Politics:

“Jesus Christ is God! Jesus Christ is God! Jesus Christ is God! Jesus Christ is the son of God!” the man continued.

“You’re the antichrist!” the man said. The crowd responded with an enthusiastic cheer of “four more years” afterward.

“First of all, I agree Jesus Christ is the Lord. I believe in that,” Obama said to tepid applause.

As the man was dragged out of the even by the Secret Service he yelled, “Jesus Christ is God, Barack Obama is the antichrist!”

“[The] Christian God is the one and only true living God, the creator of heaven and the universe,” a bearded young man near the front of the space shouted after Obama took the stage, according to a pool report about the event.

Someone threw a jacket toward the stage and Obama, who had just been introduced by ABC “Modern Family” actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson, took it all in stride. “Is that his jacket?” Obama asked.
