Police: NYC couple had 'Terrorist Encyclopedia'
Source: AP-Timesunion.com

By LARRY NEUMEISTER and COLLEEN LONG

NEW YORK (AP) — A woman who gave birth under arrest and her boyfriend were facing weapons charges Monday after authorities said they found a substance used to make bombs and papers titled "The Terrorist Encyclopedia" in their apartment in a picturesque Manhattan neighborhood.

Morgan Gliedman, the 27-year-old daughter of a prominent New York City physician, and Aaron Greene, 31, were arrested Saturday after officers with a search warrant discovered a plastic container with 7 grams of HMTD, a highly explosive white powder used in bomb making, police and prosecutors said.

Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Monday the substance was powerful, but it was difficult to speculate how much damage it would do in that amount.

Also found in the living room were numerous written items containing instructions on the manufacture of explosive materials and bombs, including a collection of pages that had a cover page entitled "The Terrorist Encyclopedia" and a booklet entitled "Deadly Homemade Weapons," court papers said. No political writings were discovered, and Kelly said the investigation was continuing into whether the couple had any larger plans or ties to any radical groups. They didn't show up on any watch lists.

Almost sounds like two different stories don't it and curiously no mention of the occupoopers.

But I also have to mention, almost to the credit of the DUmp, this campfire was lit yesterday and hasn't got much traction (the neckbeard loses again). I wonder why that is?!?

Just as an added attraction I would like to add this youtube video with the following caveats...

NSFW
Graphic violence
Celebrity Hypocrisy

Edit: Sorry Coach, no transcript

If you watch it put on your headphones and listen to it all the way to the end.

Good find, great find.

One wonders why the Associated Press didn't mention a few certain things.

The name of the substance kind of sounded familiar.
I think that's the stuff that resulted in the large liquid containers being banned on aircraft.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

7 grams?!? About the same as a black powder in a buffalo gun cartridge, like a .50-100.
