Third Time's the Charm for Fake Terrorism Case?

Way back in June of 2006 we reported that the Sears Tower terrorism case was a joke. This was pure entrapment by the feds as these guys were about as threatening as the Apple Dumpling gang. Here is what we said in 2006:

Despite the indictment mentioning Al Qaeda several times and Bin Laden for some reason, neither were involved in this alleged plot. There was a law entrapment, errr…enforcement officer who somehow convinced these boneheads they he was really part of Al Qaeda. He got them to swear allegiance to Al Qaeda and even got them to believe they would have a chance to blow up the Sears Tower.

They are so laughable inept that the idea they could be a threat to the Sears Tower is absurd. By the end of the indictment it is clear that this group has probably seen too many movies (just look at their materials list) and that even getting boots was a multi–step process that they could barely accomplish.

Unable to admit defeat, the US is dragging these guys to court for a third time, according to today’s New York Times. The story is here, and the best quote from it is below:

“These are the types of prosecutors Las Vegas is built on,” Mr. Turley said. “They keep returning to the table with the same losing hand.”
