Muslim Extremists Plan Attack on Jewish Institutions

There were four men arrested in a plot to bomb a Synagogue and a Jewish Community Center. The suspects also planned to shoot at military planes with missiles at New York’s National Guard Base. The suspects wanted to engage in terrorist acts and selected targets and sought weapons to carry out their plans.

The four men, James Cromitie, David Williams, Onta Williams and Laguerre Payen; were arrested after purchasing inactive explosive devices and an inactive missile. The men believed that these weapons were real and fully planned to attack Americans. Cromite believed that he would go to paradise if he died a martyr. All four men were born in the United States and were Muslim. Three of the men were converted in prison and the fourth was born of Afghan decent.
