DENVER – An Afghan immigrant wanted to carry out a massive New York City terror attack involving hydrogen peroxide bombs on commuter trains to coincide with the Sept. 11 anniversary before federal authorities foiled the plan, a U.S. prosecutor said Friday.

U.S. prosecutor Tim Neff told a federal judge in Denver that Najibullah Zazi "was intent on being in New York on 9/11" for a possible terror attack.

"The defendant was in the throes of making a bomb and attempting to perfect his formulation," Neff said. He called the evidence a "chilling, disturbing sequence of events."

Neff ordered Zazi, a 24-year-old Afghan-born coffee cart owner in New York and Denver airport shuttle driver, transferred to New York City to face charges of conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction. ..

From the NY Times article linked at #60....

A federal judge ordered a Colorado man transferred to New York on Friday to await trial, a day after a grand jury in Brooklyn charged him with conspiring to use weapons of mass destruction.

“And why again is it that he is in this country?”

And why is it again he’s an airport shuttle driver?

TATP was also used by the Oklahoma University bomber

Yes, I thought of that also. His name was Joel Hinrichs and he was a nice young man who was depressed but had nothing (NOTHING AT ALL!!) to do with the mosque down the street, where he "was never seen, ever." /sarc

He was a nice boy, why would anyone think he was committing jihad and intended to kill himself and a couple dozen (or more) football fans? A Muslim? Absurd. /double sarc

Joel "Not A Muslim" Hinrichs, left. Najibullah Zazi definitely a Muslim jihadi, right.

After this capture I heard a real liberal say “I guess there really are terrorists but 60 thousand people die a year in car accidents”

And about 1,000,000 die from CHOICE.

Shrug...
