Terror suspects reportedly had FBI targets

By GIOVANNA DELL'ORTO
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

ATLANTA -- One of 7 men accused of plotting to blow up the Sears Tower admitted to being
a member of the group that swore allegiance to al-Qaida, and told investigators it planned
to bomb five FBI buildings, a prosecutor said Thursday.

Lyglenson Lemorin, a Haitian national, also admitted to attending military training in Miami
and other parts of Florida to carry out the mission, Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard
Getchell said during Lemorin's hearing before a U.S. magistrate.

Lemorin is one of seven men suspected in the terror plot who were arrested last week at the
group's alleged hide-out in a Miami warehouse.

Getchell said the alleged ringleader, Narseal Batiste, told an FBI informant who posed as an
al-Qaida member that with the terror group's support, he could get his plans going in less
than a year.

1. A bunch of wannabes without a clue.

That was pretty obvious from what was released last week.

Unfortunately the government has been working hard at using them to convince us to be afraid so that we'll fall into back into line. But, a real threat these people never were and never would have been.

I wish they'd stop wasting their time on this and use it more productively finding some REAL terrorists.

4. Goes to show that even in the real world, ya just dont know who really are

Bad enough online, knowing who people really are, and it happens in the real world too. Thinking that these guys were not too bright to take up an offer from a stranger to help them in everyway they might ever conceive of.
