Over the weekend a handful of people were arrested for plotting to blow up JFK airport. It was, we were told, going to be bigger than 9/11, with more death and destruction.
However, most media are reporting the basic sensationalist scaremongering news with the implication the attack was imminent.
What very few news outlets are reporting is that the plot, using the loosest definition, had hardly got started. The informant had been convicted of a crime and was awaiting sentencing, and had been told that his sentence could be diminshed if he became an informant and his infilitration was successful. Immediately there is the possibility of entrapment, for the informant had a motive to encourage the plot to develop so that the plot could be busted and his sentence could be reduced. The alleged ringleader DeFreitas believed the informant so much from the informant's enthusiasm that he thought the informant had been sent by Allah. Experts also say the attack could have caused some damage and fires but not on the scale the plotters wanted.
But if the plot had hardly got off the ground and was impractical, why bust it now in such a sensationalist manner, and not wait for it to develop for more evidence to secure a conviction?
Over the weekend was Bilderberg 2007 in Istanbul.
Just the week before there was a terrorist attack in Ankara.
And around the time the Bilderbergers were arriving in Istanbul the Turkish press announced the arrest of 11 suspected al-Qaeda members suspected of plotting to attack Istanbul, though few details were given.
Gotta keep 'em terrified! They're more controllable then.
