Federal authorities arrested a 19-year-old Jordanian citizen whom they said placed an inactive car bomb today at Fountain Place, a 60-story skyscraper in downtown Dallas.
Wow, that is terrible. Terrorists are still alive and well in this country, and dangerously close to successfully killing great swathes of us.
Right?
Federal agents posed as members of an al-Qa’ida sleeper cell. Smadi, who was in the U.S. illegally, allegedly told them that he came to the country specifically to commit “Jihad for the sake of God.”
Wait, the al Quaida cell was made up of Federal agent (provocateurs)?
The affidavit also says that undercover agents attempted to persuade Smadi that the Jihad obligations of a Muslim can be satisfied in different ways. Smadi allegedly responded each time that he planned to commit “significant, conspicuous violence.”
Oh, so the feds weren't being provocateurs. They were trying to minister to the troubled teen. Of course. You should have guessed that, comrade!

An inactive car bomb. Was he just a bad designer?
Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert said city officials were notified of the impending arrest beforehand.
“We were clearly communicated to that there was not going to be a danger to anybody,” Leppert said.
So either the feds knew in advance that their troubled teen was a bad designer, or, they gave him the "inactive car bomb".
Well, if they couldn't get him into heaven, at least they didn't give him a Ryder truck full of ammonium nitrate and fuel.
