Or not…..

But oh how the liberals wish it were true:

The FBI arrested and charged a man Wednesday for allegedly plotting to blow up the Capitol and the Pentagon.

The 26-year-old Massachusetts man, Rezwan Ferdaus, was arrested as part of an FBI sting operation in which he was made to believe he was working with members of al Qaeda, who were actually undercover agents.

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.

The DOJ stressed that the public was never in danger from the explosive devices, which it said were controlled at all times by undercover FBI officials who closely monitored Ferdaus as he allegedly developed his plot.

According to the DOJ, Ferdaus aimed to create a devastating psychological impact with the attacks, saying at one point, “I just can’t stop; there is no other choice for me.”

…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.

“During a June 2011 meeting, he appeared gratified when he was told that his first phone detonation device had killed three U.S. soldiers and injured four or five others in Iraq,” according to the DOJ. “Ferdaus responded, ‘That was exactly what I wanted.’”

Rezwan Ferdaus is a Massachusetts man with a degree in physics.
No dummy.
Did he have the expertise to use unmanned drones to blow up or bomb the U.S. Pentagon and U.S. Capitol buildings?
Who knows?
But no one can call him an ignorant person or so poor that he HAD to turn to terrorism.
He was neither poor nor ignorant.
Usually a person is poor and/or ignorant (according to the Left’s most common theme).

So, how to spin this radicalized American Muslim?

The Boston Herald gives us a clue.
It uses terms like:
“Rezwan lacked the street smarts”
“hapless”
“nitwit”
a “limousine jihadist”
“the terrorist next door in the handsome four-bedroom colonial”
“wasn’t quite sharp enough”

Then on TV:
juvenile
high jinxs
pranks

As far as I’m concerned comments like these could taint a jury pool.

15 years in a jihadi ph,d prison program just fails to make sense and the imagery associated with concentration camps is scary but there are means and there are places where these MuckBucks can disappear. Set them free, they want sharia, islam, allah-b-galla fine on Allah (aka: Midway) Island. They wont eat Spam so give them a crate of the stuff for bait. Back-Pak, sleeping bag, fishing pole with line and bobber then say “Good Riddance”. Water?, leave a 100 gal tank to be replaced every 12 months. By the way, no radio, books, anything which could be used to unscrew an intelligent mind. By the way, Midway Island still has the remnants of a PanAm hotel built in the 1930’s so they can convert that into a male-male brothel when they get bored. “Tonight Mougghab you play goat!”

The problem with using a title like this, is that some on the left will totally miss the facts and accept that the title is correct and tell others Rezwan Ferdaus was a “Tea Partier” (using instead the far left’s Tea B***** smear,) and focus on the title as fact, not even bothering to reading the whole story to understand that it was a feint.
