I'm beginning to see a pattern in these thwarted plans, it seems that it only requires an idea, or speculative conversation to be placed into the sights of these anti terrorism agencies, who then basically spoon feed you the rest of the plot, the means and ways of how to proceed and then if you follow along, well there you're guilty. Now since I don't have all the facts, I can't say whether these men were coerced beyond just conversation to take action or whether action was taken first before govt involvement.
next thing, no one should be surprised about a terrorist or muslim connection in Trinidad or Guyana as I mentioned in the post above, it's been in the news before, here's the link I was looking for.
You'll find that a lot of us on ATS have noticed this "trend" some time ago. I might be risking the loss of my umbrella...again...but I will point out that this is how politicians can and do spin good things in to bad things. "As you can see, the current trend indicates an increase in home grown terrorism. We're going to need more laws and funding if we're going to stop this."
