The War on Terror Continues

Newburgh, NY terrorists on a mission to take out a military plane and synagogues were busted red-handed by authorities from the police, DHS and FBI:

Four homegrown Muslim terrorists on a mission from hell were arrested last night as they planted what they thought were high-powered plastic explosives at two Bronx synagogues, authorities said.

The men were also allegedly plotting to use a Stinger missile to shoot a military plane out of the sky in upstate New York immediately after the bombings.

"This is America's finest hour. The best resources of the Police Department, Homeland Security and the FBI kept us safe," said Jonathan Rosenblatt, a rabbi at the targeted Riverdale Jewish Center.

At 9:00 PM last night, they began their own personal jihad:

They planted what they thought were explosives in a parked car outside the house of worship.

One acted as a lookout, while the other three allegedly drove up the block to the Riverdale Jewish Center and planted two more bags of "explosives" in cars.

Unbeknownst to them, their explosives were duds -- supplied by authorities who had been monitoring their plan for more than a year.

I guess the question that needs to be asked is this: Since this investigation started over a year ago, what methods did the Bush administration allow the federal entities to use to track these guys and get inside? The next would be would Obama allow the same methods to be employed.

Finally, will the media publish the arabic names of the guys involved or the Americanized ones?
