Terror Cell Rolled Up In Miami.

Move along. Nothing to see here.

June 22, 2006 — Federal agents, including the FBI, launched a series of raids tonight targeting a suspected terror cell based in Miami, and federal law enforcement officials said seven people have been arrested over the past two days.

Among those arrested, five were U.S. citizens, one was a permanent legal resident, and one was a Haitian who was in the United States illegally on a visa overstay, federal officials told ABC News.

The group has been under surveillance for some time and was infilitrated by a government informant who allegedly led them to believe he was an Islamic radical, a Justice Department official said.

The group had expressed interest and discussed bombing targets in Miami and the Sears Tower in Chicago, sources familiar with the investigation said.

Just MoveOn, folks. Terrorism is no big deal. I know this because a big-time CIA guy said so. He’s smart and knows everything. Go ahead and ask him.

And apparently there were all Islamic radicals, too. Huh. Can’t be true. I keep hearing that these Islamic folks are about the “religion of peace” thing. No matter how many Islamic terrorists we run across, they’re always the exception. I suppose I have to believe that. After all, I wouldn’t want to be branded as a racist and fired from my job for suggesting otherwise.

Better to listen to our betters who say the War on Terror is bunk. Let’s just all go back to sleep.

Nothing to worry about.

Especially if you happen to live or work at the Sears Tower.
