He wasn't a real Nafis, just a Quazi Nafis.

I hear he was furious over some video.

Earlier yesterday I saw the potus theory floated then removed by the evening.
Which story line do you think the sinking potus will embrace/employ? Fake war in libya where he takes out, by drone, the people who killed our people in libya? Bid Laden II?. Threat of assassination? How about his kid or wife are sick? Bo has a booboo?

They will love this Muslim twink in gen pop. He must have the IQ of a beet.

FTA "According to the criminal complaint, Nafis said: 'All I had in my mind are how to destroy America... I came up to this conclusion that targeting America’s economy is most efficient way to draw the path of obliteration of America as well as the path of establishment of Khilapha.’"

OMG, is he related to oblamma?

Hss ever ever in the history of America a president watched in real time as his Ambassador and Navy SEALs were murdered and simply went to bed so he could be up early to continue his political campaign?

It is so chilling that it makes one wonder if Stevens was on Obama's 'kill list'.

Maybe we should consider a moritorium on student visas, and track down those "students" whose visas have expired, or who haven't attended classes for the past thirty days, and who are still presumably roaming the country.

Color me skeptical: they're on the same side.

They arrested him only after Stephanie Cutter helped him with his absentee ballots in Florida, Ohio and New Hampshire.

Nafis could very well be a bad actor, or an idiot, and the FBI had to entrap him.

...but, I thought Obama's foreign policy was working and they all love us now...

Trying to rev up some sympathy votes for the 'coulda been assassinated' president?

Who let him into the country? Colleges and Universities are perpetrating this debacle in the name of "diversity". Don't we have enough diversity within the country?

I totally agree with #7. I hear that Britain has a policy that they require schools to provide whether the students attend classes or not.

I do not want Obama 'taken out.' Every street and building in the country will be named for him if that happens. Hopefully by this time next month he'll be packing his duds and laving the White House.

Is it just me or does this story sound too pat with the perp's confession too scripted? Maybe it's the level of distrust I have for Old Media and the government.

There is no point, they are both on the same side and have the same goals. The only difference is that one has the intelligence of a snake and the other of a brick. We can not allow this psycho to deprive us of our victory in November.

Maybe I missed something but all the article talked about was the plan to bomb the New York Federal Reserve building so I hardly see how that "takes out" 0bama. It also points out the ignorance of the would-be bomber. Blowing the Fed sky high would interrupt things a bit but surely, all the records are backed-up offsite. If 0bama had a son, I think he'd look a little like Quazi.

This whole story doesn't pass the smell test!

If this idiot was going to take down the financial security of this country, he's too late ~ BO & Joey have beat him to it.

No doubt the Obama White House would report to the nation that this guy is just another wayward movie critic if they thought that they could get away with that in order to further cover for the perpetrators of radical Islamic jihad who are continuously attempting to attack the USA.

The article says that this guy plotted to kill Obama, but apparently his mission was to bomb a big bank in New York. Now everybody knows that Obama hates big New York banks, so the chances of Obama being in the vicinity of that bank giving a campaign speech are remote.

This guy's chances of coming anywhere near Obama would be much better at a college or university where Obama always gives his speeches, blowing smoke at know nothing college students like this naive radical Islamist terrorist.

And the Obama State Dept. gave this guy a student visa to study cyber security in the USA?????

Dittos to #8. Why would the islamists want to kill obumbler? Whether he is an active ally or just inept and naive, Mr. Apology is one of their best assets at this time.

Student visa

Throwing in the assassination bit seems to be an afterthought. What I want to know is, why does the FBI, CIA and other security/intelligence factions have to set up a Sting Operation to catch these terrorists. It seems they have a hand in all ends of the act from securing the elements to create bombs to helping secure methods of delivery. Loads of 'fishy' smell to all of this. They knew about most of those involved in 9-11, but what was done to hinder that?

#25: I agree. I also question the timing of this thing. It knocked the debate off the front page during the time of analysis and fact check. So far nobody has done the big article laying out how Romney told a bunch of untruths. Obama lied through his teeth, but Romney didn't.

So, now they're just talking about this would be puppet ... I mean terrorist.

#8 & 23 - I don't know how they think, but I do know that we don't think like them and they don't think like us. You cannot use common logic when trying to understand what goes through the brain of a terrorist. You might as well ask why do islamists kill each other? Because it is what they do is about the only answer that fits.

How Interesting

The day afterObama gets called out for not calling Benghazi terrorism, some schmo the authorities have been eyeballing gets taken down for thinking about doing the nasty.

Not actually doing anything like Libya. But "planning".

C'mon ... doesn't anyone else smell a patsy???

Anyone want to bet that obama finds somebody.... ANYbody.... to bomb before election day? Probably before the next debate. He is desperate. I heard someone on FoxNews this a.m. saying that when we had a strike against us in Libya during the Reagan administration that within 10 days, Reagan ordered the bombing of Gaddafi's compound.... and Reagan never heard a peep from Gaddafi after that. What a man!! What a president!

You're absolutely right, #27. Nutshell.

Not buying that line for a minute. That's like a six-year-old saying he's going to kill Santa Claus.

Rumor has it that he is a dues-paying member of the OWS brigade.

Exactly #20. we will see several more 'foiled Obama is keeping us safe plots" up until election day.

#1 - low-hanging fruit, perhaps, but still hilarious.

#3 - well, The Won is fresh out of grandmothers to die the week before the election, so he's got to find something to stimulate a repeat of the sympathy bump he got in his 2008 returns. (And anticipating reactions to this comment -- no, I don't think it's possible to be too cynical about that cat or his posse.)

C'mon, no Tea Party connection with this perp? s/o

The muslim student, from bangladesh, was enrolled at Soutwest Missouri State, taking courses in cybersecurity.
It is time to stop the insanity of letting filthy islamofascist terrorist pigs enroll in our schools.

I guess foreign students don't like other foreign students.

Timing is everything. How convenient to happen before another debate and the election.

Time to verify all VISAs and boot these people out.

Why would islamists want to take out Obama since he is on their side? Martyr effect. Obama is going to lose the election, if he is murdered he will be revered in this country and around the world and his causes would be carried out and expanded just like after JFK.

He was here on a student visa.

What I want to know, is how did he find a parking spot in Bloomberg's NY?

Smell test fail.

I believe that the news reports stated he was a follower of an Islamic Radical group that the President has stated was "decimated", but how can that be ?? Obama is never wrong. When Obama had OBL killed, he created a martyr, but of course, he never looked that far ahead to see just what the unintended consequences of his action would be. Now these people just have an additional reason to blame the USA for their hatred.

If William 'Bill' Ayers had a son, he would look like Quazi Nafis.

I don't believe the story that Obama was also a target for a minute.

Someone with a lot of money and an interest in manipulating US politics made...and probably financed...the plan to strike the Federal Reserve Bank. Had it succeeded, the damage to the US economy would have been significant. It could have been a game-changer, motivating voters to not switch Presidents.

It would seem to me to be totally illogical that Obama was also a target...

#13 and 44 are correct.

Hard to believe that this involves our own american "leaders". Disgusting.

Too bad he missed
