U.S. attorney: Fed terror suspect one of most dangerous since 9/11

Quazi Nafis, 21, the former student accused of plotting to blow up the Federal Reserve.

The student from Bangladesh who allegedly plotted to set off a truck bomb outside the New York Federal Reserve Bank is one of the most dangerous terrorists the United States has faced since the Sept. 11 attacks, the U.S. attorney handling the case said Friday.

“He came here wanting to carry out a terrorist attack and he came here already radicalized,” said U.S attorney Loretta Lynch.  She added Mohammed Nafis is likely more dangerous than the group of terrorists in the 2009 Zazi suicide bomb plot who targeted New York City’s subway system.


“I would say (Nafis) was as dangerous if not more so than the Zazi members,” Lynch said. “Nothing was going to stop him. This defendant was thinking ahead about how if he survives he can carry out bigger and better plots in the future.”

Speaking out for the first time, Lynch said the feds were a bit lucky that Nafis contacted an informant about building a terror cell to carry out bombings in New York.  She said Nafis was plotting and reaching out to others weeks before the FBI knew he was in the country.

“This defendant came here to build his terror network.  It was only through some luck that he did make a connection through law enforcement and that we were then able to pretend to join his group.”

Nafis was arrested Wednesday morning after parking a van he thought was loaded with more than 1,000 pounds of explosives. But the device was inert because the FBI had secretly provided some non-working components. Officials insist the public was not in any immediate danger as Nafis was being closely monitored.

Lynch said the investigation continues into whether Nafis had al Qaeda contacts overseas. She said he did try to recruit others here in the United States but was not immediately successful. And she pointed out he thought he had the FBI undercover agent as a terrorist accomplice.

FBI, NYPD and Homeland Security officials have said Nafis was radicalized by watching online jihadist videos and reading al Qaeda’s “Inspire” Magazine.

“He was not someone who learned sitting at the feet of bin Laden but he was inspired by him,” Lynch said.

Investigators said he was capable of building a bomb and had been mapping targets for weeks.

Overseas, relatives of Nafis said he was a good man who must have been somehow set up. Lynch said, ”It’s not the government that is targeting these young people. It is al Qaeda that is targeting these people. And we’ve got to break that hold.”

Hey there Unitedstates1776,

entrapment is not illegal if you have suspective thoughts on the suspect, and can show in a more normal investigation that he/she is show the desire to engage in acts of war or associated with a proven person or oragnization that is engaged in such activities.

Let's talk about that 9 year old girl advocating DEATH in Australia!!! That doesn't just happen!!! THAT IS TAUGHT - EITHER IN MUSLIM SCHOOLS OR MOSQUES!!! What are WESTERN HATING people doing living in WESTERN countries unless they are out to DESTROY those countries?!!! Do you not think that the same crap is being taught to Muslim children here living in the USA?!!! It's been shown that ANTI-AMERICAN literature has been found in Muslim schools and Mosques here in America. Hating Muslims have said they would DESTROY America from the inside!!! I do not believe all Muslims are evil... BUT... seeing the news, I know a large group are and even the moderate Muslim will let girls die in a burning school before letting them come out without their head scarves on and tell people trying to help them that it is sinful to save them and better to let them die!!! THAT IS EVIL!!!

By the way - this guy was doing piss freaking poor and failing classes in his own freaking country... so why let him come here to our country???!!!

For the life of me i cannot understand why the US feel so compelled to educate the Pakistanis ...the Bangladeshis...the Saudis and other such assorted gems.

What will happen if we don't educate these folks ? No really ...what ?

Can't we just stop educating these folks until some sort of sanity has returned to the ME ? Hey we can always look into educating Sudanese, Somalians, North Koreans in the meantime ...seriously ...iwould take a Somalian to educate anyday over a Bangladeshi or Pakstani ....

Please ...can anybody look into this. Do we need to write to our congressman to stop the education and immigrant visa program from these countries ?

Here's one other screwed up thing about these student visas from other countries. You remember when Mr. Clinton was in office and he sent US troops in to capture that warlord in Somalia and it was a huge failure and we all got to see that one soldier dragged dead and naked on TV behind a truck? Well, that same warlord's son at the very time this all happened was in the USA going to college at Harvard University - MONEY SPEAKS!!! That son put his Harvard degree to work after his father got killed by taking his place becoming the new warlord in Somalia! That's Capitalism at work!!! Nothing like being counter-productive to society to earn a dollar!!!

According to them radical Islamic terrorism isn't even existent...right up to president Obama who won't acknowledge nor say those words...in domestic or international attacks...like Libya.

As a rational, centrist moderate, I'm disturbed that this is one of many of these types of cases. I ask this question. If our federal law enforcement and prosecutorial dollars, are repeatedly being used to leverage self-interested, paid informants, to seek out kids like these. Then provide all the encouragement and ALL of the means, for major acts of terror, to this same kid off the street, who before only had bad intent in his heart, what are we doing to stifle REAL terror? Why is this manufactured crime, being so heavily hyped by the Justice Department ?

    Points,

    Youtube doesn't give 2 craps about what videos go up. I even started a petition months ago on change.org to get them to have a much stronger policy on videos containing animal/human violence, they don't care. Their policy states no violence, yet you can search almost anything and see it. Apparently even bomb making makes the cut! They could.not.care.less.

          I would take the bet that if I was wrong I would be homeless the rest of my life...on the bet that.....Most Americans would have no problem with expelling every Muslim from the United states if they did it in a humane way. Such as setting up housing for them elsewhere, then leave them to make their own way.I'm not saying dump them on a deserted Island with no food or shelter. Do yo know how many Americans lives would have been saved up to this point had we done this 20 years ago? We all are sick of hearing how peaceful Muslims are and the next day a Muslim blows one of our ppl up. They are no friend of ours and I do not know why ppl can not get that through their heads, mostly libs. Do you really think you are so likable there is no way someone that has never met you wishes you were dead, along with your whole family? Are ppl really that naive? Islam should NOT be recognized as a religion and be given tax breaks. To me stoning ppl, beheading them, locking their women up, that isn't religion that's out right torture, murder and it's the same as communism, a few men control hundreds of ppl. As I said I do not think you would hear much complaining if we got these enemies out of our country. And Americans are tired of bending over backwards for these enemies, they get a job then want to sue their employer b/c they want to go pray every 10 min. and get paid for it, or they want to be a cashier but not handle pork, when an American would kill just to have a job that pays. And we actually make allowances for these ppl that hate us. When was the last time you got to stay home from work on a Sunday b/c Christians shouldn't work on Sundays, that's right, the employer says, too bad if you don't like it get another job. These libs think we should wait on these Muslims hand and foot. WHY do we owe them anything? What have they EVER done for us, but kill us? And EVERYONE is sick of then coming here, they open a 7-11 type business and for SEVEN years they do NOT have to pay taxes, well after the 7 years are up, they leave the country and they have one of their brothers cousins etc take over that business and that person gets the clock reset with ANOTHER 7 years of no taxes, of course they are sending all this money back to where they came from also. So no I don't think you would see too many intelligent Americans crying if they left the USA.

          Velma, you can't really be that blind to what is actually happening? These have ALL been "TERROR PLOTS" sponsored by the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT so as to have the idiots amoung the population cry out "give President Obama and his administration credit for stopping the many attempted terrorist plots". These have in each and every case been one or two "dupes" that the FBI and/or DHS have set-up in an obvious "plot" that would not have otherwise taken place. That is what "Obama can take credit for", inspiring a large number of fools.

          The student from Bangladesh who allegedly plotted to set off a truck bomb outside the New York Federal Reserve Bank is one of the most dangerous terrorists the United States has faced since the Sept. 11 attacks, the U.S. attorney handling the case said Friday.

          This was NOT the most dangerous terrorist act since Sept 11th.......it was the Major in Texas who KILLED SOLDIERS AND OTHER AMERICANS. I almost threw up when I read that this administration called the act "Workplace Violence". And this "terrorist" attack could have been avoided if this administration used the information they had about this guy. They sure didn't catch/kill this radical terrorist before he completed what he set out to do.

          Mohammed Nafis's plot was disrupted before he could do accomplish his "mission". Great job to our law enforcement officials.

          BTW: it is about time someone in this administration started calling these jerks for what they are: TERRORISTS.

          Unfortunately, the screening done on education visa applicants is not all that stringent. This is because there are just too many of them to check them all in detail. In most cases they just do a cursory check through other law enforcement agencies around the world and in the home country to see if they have any red flags on the guy. Otherwise, the person is probably going to get the visa. As for @Velma's comment, I love how this person is trying to give the Obama administration credit for stopping this. The reality is that had it not been for some dumb luck with this guy contacting a law enforcement informant to join his group, he would probably have gotten away with his plot. This guy was not on anyone's radar or he never would have been allowed into the country. This one where we just have to chalk it up to some good luck and leave it at that. AS for @Daniel Calc - get real!!! The government is not going around setting individuals up for things like this. The guy contacted the informant looking for help with his plot, please tell me how this constitutes being set up. He initiated the contact, not the informant or law enforcement. All the government did was play along until they had the goods on this guy to prosecute him and lock him up for a good long time. Yes, they probably could have arrested him sooner on lesser charges, but by letting go through with his plan they can take him off the street for far longer on more serious charges. Then, if and when he does get out of prison, they will deport him back to where he came from. I am just glad that this guy made the mistake of contacting a law enforcement informant and did not already have contacts in the country to help him. If not for this one piece of luck, this guy might very well have succeeded with his plan. This is the reason why law enforcement is saying this guy was so dangerous, he almost pulled off his plan.

            Worst even, it wasn't even a President then or now, that had anything to do with it. Obama also had the luxury of sitting in a nice comfortable chair, while trained Navy Seals worked off Intel provided by multiple INTERNATIONAL Security operations and investigations...

              i remember,after 9/!1 and before our protesting the prospect of our invashion being part of a protest and seeing an innumerable amount of fellow protesters being filled with hate and antagontism,as well as some quiet apearently warm huminiterians.At the end of the protest,a ragged unwashed man about twenty or so burned an Americian flag,unziped himself and took a piss on the smoldering piece of cloth.I felt sick to my stomache for months at the sight.This was not what I wanted.I remember thinking that if the peacenicks were so befuddled and lost that this did not brood well for this nation.I supported Mr.Oboma and feel that I was continued to be disillusioned.I feel that it is almost a wonder that we are not engaged in some civil War.These comments for the most part are heart breaking,they are pathic like the peace march I ENGAGED in.I did not read all of them,but found little light in most of them.A Mr.Larry Stauth was,to my mind,a voice of sanity above the clammor.What is the solution?On the one hand,we have a largly failed president who has proven himself incoptent and an oppetent who is not forthcomning as to his actual belieafs and centeral convictions who believes in magical underwear,thinks that satan and Jesus were brothers,that God has A wife(who is being conviently kept in the closset during the course of the election)and wants to protect an Americia that is largly delussional,one that Jesus visited after His reported Resurection.His wife has questioned his mental stability publically,a son has expressed less than tolerant views attitudes towards somebody for simply disagreeing with his father,and he,himself,often seemes to be on the verge of exploding as he tells us he wants to stand for Traditional values.I keep thinking about the frying pan and the fire analogy.I will vote for Mr.Oboma because I believe it is better to be in the frying pan,thank you.I do not know what should be done.I do know that we need to hold unto our humanity and see that we are all in this together.At the protest many carried signs saying,Who Would Jesus Bomb? attitude is of the utmost imortance.I think all of us are frightened,and many of us are very much aware that we are being pissed on.

                Its quite comincal (in a very scary way) how this gets political and people fight over democrat and republican (when we ALL know that both are lying scum and in reality they have the same agenda) But yet at election time, we (meaning you) believe them!!! Now as far as propaganda goes...Our media has lead us to hate muslims, when they are peaceful people. We only reflect on what our news channels say (forgetting that they only want ratings and what they report has political ties as well) . When we forget that we are in their countries killing their women, their children, their fathers..etc, and we expect to be left alone???? Blowback suck, but they are real! Americans are no better than anyone....people are equally important, yet "Americans think that they are superior to anyone and feel that if we kill it is for a reason, but if they do it is for terrorism" Unfortunatley if you step back and look...we are occupying their countries, we are policing their territories for oil (even if you believe the lies that we are their for democracy)...we are their to control...Unfortunately their will be consequences! We are to blame! This Country was based on awesome ideas, unfortunately the politicians have gotten a taste of power, have grown roots and ties and now can not give up the taste of this power...it is harder to get rid of them. To keep this country great, we need a revolution every generation! Maybe then will politians (with no ties to corruption) actually implement policies that will be good for this country!

                  One of the "most dangerous" since the underwear bomber is more likely. He's another young, overly ambitious, easily manipulated idiot who serves a huge purpose by keeping the public's fear at a high level.

                  chris...I've been meaning to watch it...and I will. I read dozens of reviews of those who had watched it. A common theme was that this movie does not bash Obama but it gives you an insight into his vision for America based on his upbringing, etc., and it's not the America we know and love. Some reviewers posted that they felt physically ill when they left the theater.

                  Thanks for your post. I too would hope everyone could be open minded and at least watch the movie, and then they can decide whether the movie has merit or not.

                      Chris,

                      That so called documentary is nothing but a propaganda film funded by the same people who are funding Romney's campaign. And it is just about as accurate as Faux Entertainment. It has been reviewed by people who know the true facts of Obama's life and they call it a flat out piece of slanderous and slanted crap. So give it a rest. Your bias is showing and your ignorance is, too.

                            So I guess the only real threats, as opposed to people set up or even totallly fabricated busts, are when they actually succeed in pulling off a violent action? And even then, it was the government doing it to scare us? You people seriously do have a lot of faith, if not a lot of reason.

                                Oh yea, he was "so dangerous" that he had no idea he was being set-up and surrounded by federal agents as opposed to "fellow jihad's". How many of these "set-ups" will we see before the "Federal Government" informs us that we are in such "immediate danger" that the FBI and DHS can no longer guarantee our protection and as a result we will be subjected to Marshall Law. If people would just THINK about these "TERROR PLOTS" that the FBI and DHS repeatedly "uncover" and then "Thwart" (because they are of their own making) it stands to reason that there has to be a motivation behind these "Set-ups" that are billed as "Terror Plot Broken Up by FBI" or whatever, where there is one disenfranchised foreign student that they began setting up BEFORE he ever set foot in the US. This is NOT GOOD POLICE WORK, THIS IS PREPARATION FOR SOMETHING WE AS CITIZENS ARE GOING TO REGRET ALLOWING TO OCCUR, because we ignored these fabricated terror plots to repeatedly be thrown at us as "victories" in the Domestic War on Terror, and they are not. They are a prelude to the continued attack on the Bill of Rights and the Constitution of The United States of America.

                                  - If you haven't realized it before now than let me make this clear to you. Our government can not guarantee our safety in any way. They, the terrorist are all around us and they will strike in the very near future. The 9/11 attack was the first of 3 major attacks on American soil. the 2nd attack, sponsored by Iran, is soon to come and it most likely will be 1000 times greater than the 9/11 attack. The 3rd attack will come from Russia, China and possibly one other country. God has never allowed a destruction of a people or nation that He has not first given His warnings.

                                  To read God's judgment for America's future or lack thereof, google: "The Message For America, Hand of Help Ministries." For how I was led to this google: "Watchman On The Wall, America ~ Mystery Babylon?" For America's 2nd major terrorist attack, google; "The Eagle and the Serpents, Hand of Help Ministries." And again, what I believe will be the location of the 2nd attack, google: "Watchman On The Wall, The Eagle and the Serpents (Part 2)."

                                        Daniel I agree. Some people out there can not see what their government is doing. They still believe that building 7 came down by itself even though you could see the expoosions. The more of this that they do you are going to see more TSA. When they loose all of their rights they will finallly wake up but it will be to late. If they would get away from the TV and read and not the main stream newspapers because they are going along with all of thie. Get on your computer and check foreign news along with some news from the US that is not mainstream news. TSA is on the highways now along with national guard and some army and who do you think they are policing us or al Qaeda.Why do you think Obama wants your guns? Open your mind and think. Forget the tv and video games and educate yourself.

                                                        Seems to me are open borders and ports are the biggest threats. Makes ya wonder why there still wide open if under such an eminent threat.

                                                        I have to agree with Daniel. 18 years ago I read a book titled "Behold a Pale Horse" by William Cooper which stated that these types of false flag, operation northwoods type activities would occur. We are being set up for some type of crises. How else can one explain the constant debasement of the currency by the fed. The book even stated that the currency crash is part of the plan. Only Ron Paul has been warning us for years about the fed. That is why I never watched the presidential debates because the subject of the fed will never be brought up by either Obama or Romney.

                                                          I believe shortly into the sentence he no doubt will receive this young man will wish we had a death penalty in the US for what he did. He is going to be one very popular fellow, so popular he probably will be in solitary for the rest of his life. Give him a belt and bedsheets and let's see if he's man enough to kill himself.

                                                          Lets give the FBI and others some credit for catching this guy. We don't hear enough about what they do right. Luck is luck but somebody had to be paying attention.

                                                          The fact that his name is Mohammed should be an important red flag for the FBI. It seems like half of all terrorists are named Mohammed.

                                                          They should be able to catch him after all it was their plan

                                                            When will we finally have enough?
