Homegrown Terror: The FBI has arrested yet another American Muslim for plotting to kill fellow citizens in the name of Islam. Why is the U.S. Muslim community so uniquely susceptible to violence?

According to a federal affidavit, Sami Osmakac, a 25-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen, planned to use car bombs to blow up Tampa nightclubs, bridges and even a police station. He was arrested over the weekend.

Osmakac said he wanted to instill “more terror” in the hearts of “kaffirs,” or infidels, as “payback” for wrongs done to Muslims. His chilling plan, the FBI says, was to detonate a bomb at a popular Irish pub “where it gets real crowded,” and then hit another target several hours later.

He tried to obtain from an undercover FBI agent a 100-pound explosive that he thought was big enough to “take down buildings” and “kill people inside.” He ordered it packed with marbles, BBs and other projectiles to “rip flesh.”

Osmakac figured such horrific retail terrorism would also blow a huge new hole in the federal budget as Homeland Security shifted assets to protecting and hardening commercial targets.

“After all this money they’re spending for homeland security, this is gonna be crushing them,” he was recorded as saying.
