Arrest Early Or Risk Potential Terror Attack
It’s a rather big dilemma for law enforcement and national security. At what point does continued surveillance outweigh the risk of letting a potential terror plot go too far? It’s a fine line. Move in too soon and you may not have a case. Wait too long and lives, perhaps many lives, could be lost.

I am so thankful these men are willing to sacrifice so much to keep us safe. Following the suspects and carefully building a case is essential to arrest, trial and ultimately the suspects being sentenced and jailed. Their commitment to do everything necessary is imperative.

If I had joked about jihad on a flight or publicly TSA would still have me locked in chains. Any attempt to recruit others for Jihad and al-Qaeda are not matters to be taken lightly, American is under attack and we must take it serious. Why was Hazam Ali Ahmed not deport as an undeserable when he was arrested in 2006 for weapon possion as a convicted felon. The Judical system is dragging their feet protecting U.S. citizens. Ahmed stated he works for al-Qaeda and is planning a domestic terrorist attack, he is an enamy combatant, if the courts will not lock him away then Seize his property and deport him and his family. We can not riske allowing him to remain free amoung us another day.
