[quote]US federal prosecutors have charged a 20-year-old man in the state of Kansas with planning a suicide bomb attack against Fort Riley army base in an alleged plot to support the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group.
John T Booker of Topeka was charged on Friday with attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction, attempting to damage property by means of an explosive and attempting to provide material support to the "terrorist" group.
Booker was arrested earlier on Friday near the Kansas city of Manhattan "as he made his final preparations for his planned assault" on nearby Fort Riley, the US Attorney for Kansas, Barry Grissom, said.
An FBI agent said there was no breach at the military base.
"Unbeknownst to him, the materials that were used to make up this bomb were inert," said Grissom, who added that Booker would appear on Friday in US Federal Court.[/quote]

Fortunately, even if he were not caught before hand, the bomb would not have gone off due to crappy materials.
Thank god for the guy being moron, although most of these people aren't very smart which is a good thing.

Doesn't take brains to cause damage, all they really need is a gun, [url=http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/isis-terror/man-who-killed-soldier-car-was-radical-muslim-authorities-say-n230526] or even just a car.[/url]
If the materials were inert, that would suggest it was a sting operation, right?

or he mixed up his potassium nitrate with potassium chloride and his dextrose with saccharine :v:
if that's his number one aspiration, he probably didn't think it over so well.
Well good thing he was stopped since I'm currently stationed there.
Can you imagine the look on his face if this guy went onto the base in an attempt to blow himself up, pressed the button and absoloutely nothing happened...and then a few seconds later guffaws of laughter from a van parked not far away.
The fact that this nutso was only a town away and went to a school mere miles away from my own at the same time I would've been at school due to only being a year older than him feels really eerie when this kind of thing happens. Apparently people who knew him thought he was off-kilter for a while, a guy he worked with at Wal-Mart stopped talking to him after he went, "I hate America."

Given his young age, my guess is he was just being stupid.
