Jose Pimentel has been indicted in New York City after he was arrested while building a bomb in a state-level terrorism case. According to Associated Press<\/a>, his lawyer says that the police were “overreaching” in the pursuit of Pimental who was just a “curious” young man when police arrested him while he was pre-occupied with assembling his little bomb thingie.<\/p>\n

The Dominican Republic-born al-Qaida sympathizer and Muslim convert was busy assembling his homemade bomb when he was arrested, authorities said. He later told police that he believed Islamic law obligates all Muslims to wage war against Americans to retaliate for U.S. military action in the Middle East, police said. He also wanted to undermine support for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to the indictment.<\/p>\n

Also known as Muhammad Yusuf, Pimentel maintained a website detailing his belief in jihad, or holy war, and told the informant he wanted to attack targets that included police cars and stations, post offices and soldiers returning home from abroad, authorities said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, he sounds completely innocent to me. Those meany police should be focusing on veterans who’ve never raised their hand to this country instead of some poor immigrant who builds bombs and propagates hate literature. I’d understand it if the lawyers said that he was nutty or retarded, but to claim that assembling a bomb and running hate sites on the internet isn’t terrorism is kind of failing to properly defend their client.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
