Shalom,

Thanks bro jc. Have viewed the clip and read the article in Time.

My impression that there is a perverse effort to play up the group's so-called islamic credentials (where none exists) and then link it to their alleged plans remains.

On a sidenote, I love Jon Stewart. I've been a fan for years.

Or it might be they just wanted the fifty grand they were trying to get out of what they thought was an Al Qaeda operative. It will all come out in the wash, but dirtier and more silly than when it went in.

hc, might be more to it than a mere witch hunt.

According to Time Magazine: "From initial reports and the contents of the indictment, the latter seems most likely. The arrested men appear to be part of a cult organization proclaiming itself to be Muslim — although a member of the same religious group says it is, in fact, based on a homebrew of Islam and Christianity, and calls itself "Seas of David." Its members, mainly Americans and Haitan immigrants, clearly have an enthusiasm for emulating and following al-Qaeda. But their only "connection" with al-Qaeda appears to have been the fact that a government informant who had infiltrated their ranks had apparently convinced the alleged conspirators that he was, in fact, a Qaeda operative. The oaths of allegiance to the organization [ie Qaida] alleged by the indictment to have been taken by the accused were administered not by any representative of the organization, but to a U.S. government agent posing as a Qaeda operative [ie, he's an agent provocateur]."

these men were set up. you have to ask yrself why?
