Exclusive: Feds Arrest Man Allegedly Heading To U.S. Capitol For Suicide Mission After Sting Investigation | Fox News

The man, in his 30s and of Moroccan descent, was nabbed following a lengthy investigation by the FBI, initiated after he expressed interest in conducting an attack. It's unclear how the FBI learned of his aspirations.

Sounds like catching these guy is like shooting fish in a barrel. LE approaches a suspected Terist and says "You want a bom" Terist "says yep" LE says "Your going to prison forever"

I wouldn't be so confident, it appears most of these people they catch are by themselves and not part of any organized plot. I hate to say it but at some point in time it's going to happen, I don't see how it can't.
