An Afghan immigrant wanted to carry out a New York City terror attack involving hydrogen peroxide bombs on commuter trains to coincide with the September 11 anniversary before federal authorities foiled the plan, a US prosecutor said today.US prosecutor Tim Neff told a federal judge in Denver, Colorado that Najibullah Zazi "was intent on being in New York on 9/11" for a possible terror attack.
"The defendant was in the throes of making a bomb and attempting to perfect his formulation," Neff said. He called the evidence a "chilling, disturbing sequence of events".
Neff ordered Zazi, a 24-year-old Afghan-born coffee cart owner in New York and Denver airport shuttle driver, transferred to New York to face charges of conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction. A US official confirmed that a government plane is carrying Zazi to New York.

If we take all the lawmen that are wasting our money looking for pot plants and task them with looking for these guys, we'll all be safer.
