US teenager held in Oregon over Christmas 'bomb plot'

A teenager has been arrested in the US state of Oregon after allegedly plotting to carry out a car bomb attack at a Christmas tree lighting ceremony.

Somali-born Mohamed Osman Mohamud, 19, was arrested after reportedly making a telephone call he thought would set off the bomb in the centre of Portland.

However, the bomb was a fake supplied by agents in a sting operation.

Mr Mohamud is a naturalized US citizen who had allegedly been in contact with an associate in north-west Pakistan.

Right-Wing Militia Arrested in Police Murder Plot

The rise in right-wing extremism in this country is alarming. Spurred on by the election of the first African-American president and declining economic conditions, militias and right wingers who want to kill the president are showing up all over the place.

The latest group to be discovered is a Christian militia based in rural Michigan. Federal authorities say the group was plotting to attack police officers with the goal sparking an uprising against the government. The alleged plot was to kill a police officer and then bomb the funeral. Nine people in all were arrested, including alleged ring leader 44-year-old David Brian Stone. His son, Joshua Matthew Stone, was arrested after a standoff with police ended with his peaceful surrender.

According to AP:

FBI agents moved quickly against Hutaree, because its members were planning an attack sometime in April, prosecutors said. Members had been undergoing paramilitary training, including learning how to shoot guns and make bombs, since 2008, according to an indictment. Authorities seized guns in the raids but would not say whether they found explosives.

Prosecutors said the suspected Hutaree ringleader, 44-year-old David Brian Stone of Clayton, identified law enforcement officers as potential targets. He and other members discussed setting off bombs at a police funeral, using a fake 9-1-1 call to lure an officer to his death, killing an officer after a traffic stop or attacking the family of an officer, according to the indictment. The indictment said that after the attacks, the group planned to retreat to "rally points" protected by trip-wired explosives for a violent standoff with law enforcement personnel.
