Was it Ron Paul who wanted to do away with the Fed?To those who roll their eyes at the terrorist threat against the United States -- who contend that the authorities have caught only aspirational incompetents -- there's a new one-word answer: Nafis.
That is, Quazi Mohamad Rezwanul Ahsan Nafis, a 21-year-old Bangladeshi man arrested by the FBI and NYPD after he attempted to detonate a 1,000-pound bomb outside the Federal Reserve building downtown.
Police problem. Move along.
Nafis entered the U.S. on a student visa, purportedly to study at Southeast Missouri State University. Quite innocent, he must have seemed. But there is no doubt that he came to "destroy America," as he wrote.
Will anyone rise to accuse the bureau of spying on Muslims or Bangladeshis? Just wait.
Poor, innocent kid mislead by some Romney tool in the FBI.
