Six men were arrested in the early morning hours this morning for plotting to kill as many Soldiers as possible at New Jersey’s Fort Dix.
Greg Reinhert, a Justice Department spokesman in Camden, N.J., described the six as “Islamic radicals … who were involved in a plot to kill U.S. soldiers at Ft. Dix in New Jersey.†[source]
The FBI received a tip in January 2006 after the jihadist took a DVD in to be copied. The contents of the DVD were disturbing. [source]
“The DVD depicted 10 young men who appeared to be in their early-20s shooting assault weapons at a firing range in a militia-like style while calling for jihad and shouting in Arabic, ‘Allah Akbar,’ or ‘God is Great.’â€Â
The men arrested are Mohamed Shnewer and brothers Dritan, Eljzir and Shaine Duka, Serdar Tatar of Philadelphia and Agron Abdullahu of Williamstown, N.J. Statements made to undercover FBI agents included:
“My intent is to hit a heavy concentration of soldiers,†the man on the tape said. “You hit four, five or six Humvees and light the whole place up.â€Â
There were other targets including American warships that would be docked in Philadelphia next year during the Army-Navy ball game.
UPDATE 3:30 p.m. ET: From news conference: They watched videos of attacks on American Soldiers. One video depicted an American Marine’s arm being blown off. The room erupted in laughter.
UPDATE 4:00 p.m. ET: This is a small cell with loose, if any, connections to larger terrorists cells. It seems better organized than the Miami cell that was busted about a year ago. My concern is that we won’t see the real-deal professional jihadists coming.

Beth…that’s six less votes for Hillary and the ‘Joisey’ DNC next year! How come these Islamos don’t hang around Paris Island South Carolina? I heard they all had Kerry and Clinton and Edwards bumper stickers on their vehicles too. And ‘Joisey’s’ ex-governor went gay and Corzine speeds and doesn’t wear seat belts….only in the Soprano State? New Jihad Joisey!
Thanks for the mention. I’m waiting to hear the ‘defense’ for these guys from the left and the Muslim community. There were ten men on the video, so where are the other 4???

From what I have seen of the Left-o-net, none of them care, other then the Hufftard Post, which is, of course, seeing this as some sort of Bushco plot.

These islamo turderrists wanted to hit my former 436th MAW at Dover (C-5’s & C-17’s) but the security was … a lot tougher. The Army security is behind the US Air Force security?
