From Eric Dondero:

The glaring top-of-the-fold headline in the print version of the liberal-leaning Seattle Times, read:

Alleged terror plotter "looked like everyday guy"

That quote has since been scrubbed from the on-line version.

What is known from videos the two men posted, DVDs and literature found by the FBI, they were admirers of Osama bin Laden, were inspired by Major Nidal Hasan who murdered 13 soldiers at Ft. Hood Texas in 2009, and were vehement critics of the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

From the Seattle Times, "Two men arrested in plot to attack Seattle military processing facility":

There was a point in the alleged conspiracy to maim and kill recruits and workers at a Military Entrance Processing Station in South Seattle when one of the plotters predicted they would be making headlines.

Both men are U.S. citizens and converts to Islam... The men are charged with conspiracy to murder U.S. officers, conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction (a grenade) and other firearms-related counts.

Abdul-Latif said the attack was inspired by the murderous shooting spree at Fort Hood in 2009, where a Muslim Army psychiatrist, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, killed 13 people and wounded 29 others.

The men planned to storm the building, kill the security guards, order everyone to the floor and kill as many military recruits as possible, according to the federal complaint.

His wife is quoted:

He is a very good person. He worked hard and then he come home and watch TV," she said. "I don't even know how this could happen."
