No bail for 'jihad' suspects despite judge's skepticism A federal judge ruled Wednesday that six men accused of plotting terrorist attacks overseas should remain in custody pending trial, but he expressed skepticism about the charges against them. Magistrate Judge William Webb said the defendants had made a number of statements espousing holy war that could be interpreted in isolation as empty boasting.

"Kuwait arrests 6 in plot to attack base" by Associated press | August 12, 2009
KUWAIT CITY - Kuwaiti authorities announced yesterday that they have arrested an Al Qaeda-linked group that was planning to attack a key US military base in the small oil-rich state.
The Interior Ministry said in a brief statement that State Security detained a “terrorist network’’ of six Kuwaitis who gave “detailed confessions’’ about plans to bomb Camp Arifjan, the main US base in the country, as well as the headquarters of the country’s security agency, in addition to other facilities it did not name.
The statement did not provide any details. However, Kuwait’s Alrai daily quoted anonymous security sources yesterday saying that the group had confessed to buying a truck it intended to load with fertilizer, chemicals, and gas cylinders and ram into the camp. It was unlikely the attack on the vast American logistics and supply facility in the desert south of the Kuwaiti capital would have been successful because of high security. The US military in Kuwait declined to immediately comment the foiled plot.
So am I; I no longer want to respond to bullshit.
There was no indication when the six suspects planned to attack Camp Arifjan, about 40 miles from the capital, Kuwait City. The base was key to the 2003 US invasion of Iraq that toppled Saddam Hussein. US troops used Kuwait as a launchpad for the operation, which was opposed by most Arabs. Camp Arifjan will probably be an essential hub for withdrawing American troops from Iraq. A Baghdad-Washington agreement calls for US combat troops to withdraw by August 2010.
That just a typo there, or..... ? Pffft!
