AWOL Soldier plotted attack on areas outside Ft. Hood

Waco - The AWOL soldier apprehended with bomb-making materials, guns and other tell tale goods at a Killeen motel shouted the name of Major Abu Nidal Hasan at his arraignment before a federal magistrate in Waco.

There is much concern among security officials that individuals are plotting attacks against military targets or the civilian areas outside the gates of such installations in retaliation for the death of Osama bin Laden.

Some evidence exists that lone wolf attackers fighting for either the cause of radical Islamic forces, or in defense of fundamental Christian identity could turn civilian areas into battle zones, as has been seen at the World Trade Center on 9/11, or in Oslo earlier this month.

PFc Jason Naser Abdo aroused suspicion at a Killeen gun store when he bought an unusually large amount of gun powder, behaved rudely, and asked ignorant questions about the highly volatile mixture, prompting an ex-cop and Marine sales clerk to alert police, who soon learned he was AWOL from Ft. Campbell, Kentucky, and wanted on an arrest warrant for child pornography.
