JFK bomb plot: The good news and the bad news.

"Authorities said Saturday that they had broken up an alleged terrorist plot to bomb aviation fuel tanks and pipelines at John F. Kennedy International Airport, arresting a former airport worker and two other men with links to Islamic extremists in South America and the Caribbean".-Washington Post

Well that's the good news.

"The plot did not get beyond the planning stages and had no apparent direct links to al-Qaeda or other Middle Eastern terrorist groups, according to officials and documents released Saturday."

That's the bad news because it appears we have more people that want to harm the U.S. than we thought. It would be curious to see how these guys got into the U.S. and it looks like only one of them was a "legal" U.S. resident. The other bad news is these guys were not only insiode the country but, working at the airport but, President Bush would say "they were doing the job that Americans don't want to do".
