Feds arrest 3 in alleged JFK airport terror plot
Former employee and Guyana government official among suspects named
BREAKING NEWS

Updated: 3:07 p.m. ET June 2, 2007
NEW YORK - Three men were arrested and one was being sought in
connection to a plan to set off explosives in a fuel line that feeds
John F. Kennedy International Airport and runs through residential
neighborhoods, according to an indictment released Saturday.
U.S. Attorney Roslynn R. Mauskopf called it “one of the most chilling
plots imaginable.”
“The devastation that would be caused had this plot succeeded is just
unthinkable,” she said at a news conference.
Authorities arrested Russell Defreitas, a U.S. citizen native to Guyana
and former JFK employee. He was in custody in Brooklyn and was expected
to be arraigned Saturday afternoon.
Two other men, Abdul Kadir of Guyana and Kareem Ibrahim of Trinidad, are
in custody in Trinidad. A fourth man, Abdel Nur, of Guyana, was still
being sought.
All four men have been charged with conspiring to attack the airport,
one of the nation’s busiest, by blowing up major fuel supply tanks and
the pipeline, according to the indictment. The plot involved a pipeline
that takes fuel from a facility in Linden, N.J., to the airport,
according to WNBC-TV NewsChannel4’s Jonathan Dienst, who first reported
the story.
Kadir, a former member of Parliament in Guyana, was arrested in Trinidad
for attempting to secure money for “terrorist operations,” according to
a Guyanese police commander who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Kadir, a Muslim, left his position in Parliament last year. Muslims make
up about 9 percent of the former Dutch and British colony’s 770,000
population, mostly from the Sunni sect.
The plot never got past the planning stages. It posed no threat to air
safety or the public, the FBI said Saturday.
“This was the ultimate hand-and-glove operation between NYPD and FBI,”
said U.S. Rep. Peter King, a Republican from Long Island.
The arrests mark the latest in a series of alleged homegrown terrorism
plots targeting high-profile American landmarks.
A year ago, seven men were arrested in what officials called the early
stages of a plot to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago and destroy FBI
offices and other buildings.
A month later, authorities broke up a plot to bomb underwater New York
City train tunnels to flood lower Manhattan.
And six people were arrested a month ago in an alleged plot to unleash a
bloody rampage on Fort Dix in New Jersey.
The Associated Press contributed to this story.

I don't know if this latest plot was serious or not but I note in all
of the above cases that good police and detective work was responsible
for catching the would be perpetrators and Bush's misguided war in Iraq
had nothing to do with stopping them.

But Shrub's misguided warmongering had everything to do with motivating
them.
