Unarmed terrorists

Not exactly clear and present danger:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. government has suffered enough legal setbacks in its war on terrorism to suggest the conviction of seven men accused of a plot to attack America's tallest building is anything but certain.
Officials said the seven arrested this week were part of a domestic terrorism cell plotting to attack the Sears Tower in Chicago. They also said any plot was at an early stage; the men did not have the weapons needed to carry out a plot.

Josh noted that the indictment says they wanted the snitch who was pretending to be an al-Qaida man to supply them with boots and uniforms, and asks: "Terrorist uniforms?"
