FBI yet again foils their own fake terrorist plot

[CuteOldGuy]

They're good, aren't they? How long do we have to put up with the stage plays performed by the government?

From the article:

Instead, as is the case with so many other cases of the government thwarting their own plots, we learn that Nafis actually would never have done anything if it were not for the help of the FBI.

The FBI’s narrative asserts that Nafis met the undercover FBI agent at a warehouse in the New York metro region where he “made the bomb, consisting of inert explosives, then assembled the detonator and armed the device in the van as the undercover agent drove to the Fed.”

In other words, as has been the case far too many times now, Nafis never was actually in possession of explosives and was never actually even able to get in contact with anyone but an undercover FBI agent posing as a terrorist.

Seems bad on the surface, but there is a method to this madness.

When sting operations like this are published and the would-be terrorist does hard time in the pen, other would-be jihadists are now wary that anyone they meet will be an undercover FBI agent. So they are less likely to hatch plots in the first place.

The guy is not exactly innocent. He had the mental state to kill and tried to carry it out. I don't give credit points for missing or incompetence.

They can quietly release this guy and deport him 10 years down the road - after he is older and wiser and has learned the consequences of his hatred.

Terrorist acts, particularly suicide acts, are rarely carried out by men in the 40s and 50s. It is almost always the young and hot-headed. So, this helps weed them out.
