Five men have been arrested on suspicion of trying to use what they thought were explosives to destroy a bridge near Cleveland, Ohio, the FBI said Tuesday morning.
The group on Monday planted what they thought were two remotely activated C-4-based explosive devices – which they allegedly bought from an undercover FBI employee – at the base of a Route 82 bridge that crosses from Brecksville to Sagamore Hills over the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, the FBI said in a news conference Tuesday.

Oh wait, they sold the fake bombs and most likely set-up the whole thing.
Thanks FBI!
Just another example of the age old Hegelian Dialectic. Just like people have been saying for awhile. War on (foreign) terror is over and is now full fledged going up against domestic terrorism.

But here is one more "foiled" plot.

The truth is that most of these foiled attacks are actually hatched by the FBI themselves. This has been done over and over. They find a mentally unstable person or persons. They then offer up a plot making these patsies think they are doing something patriotic and provide the materials. Then at the last minute they can pose as the saviors, they get a front page story, hence justifying even more crackdown.
Cmon guys really??

First off, any proof to your statement that these plots are hatched by the FBI?
And do you really think that these "mentally unstable" people are giving up their lives to create such an attack by the FBI coming to them? Come on really? Why is it so hard to believe that people like this actually exist?
I live about 20 miles from this bridge and it would have been absolutely devastating if this were to happen.
Though the cause of the blast was not immediately known, with some suspecting a transformer explosion, agents and bomb technicians from the ATF, FBI, and the NYPD quickly responded to the scene. The magnitude of the explosion was far beyond that of a transformer explosion. In the days after the bombing, investigators surveyed the damage and looked for clues. While combing through the rubble in the underground parking area, a bomb technician located some internal component fragments from the vehicle that delivered the bomb. A vehicle identification number (VIN), found on a piece from an axle, gave investigators crucial information that led them to a Ryder truck rental outlet in Jersey City. Investigators determined that the vehicle had been rented by Mohammad Salameh, one of Yousef's co-conspirators.[21] Salameh had reported the van stolen, and when he returned on March 4, 1993, to get his deposit back, authorities arrested him.[22]

Take a real good look at those mugshots.
I am not trying to be funny when I say 2 of those guys look like crackheads. I know a thing or two about crackheads... they have no money. I am very curious about how much money they spent to buy these so called "explosives" and where that money came from.

IMO... these "foiled plots" have been taking place for a long time now.
Probably its to condition folks to think that the government is keeping them safe from attacks... both foreign and domestic.
My 2 cents.

Another thing not lacking in the US would be propaganda based on hating brown people and giving up your rights to the Government to keep you safe.

Two things are clear. Islamic terrorists are neither lacking in numbers or ambition in the US.
