Based on the news reports they were more wannabes than anything else. There were attempting to obtain explosives but trying to obtain explosives and obtaining explosives are two very different things.
Do I believe they wanted to attack the Sears Tower absolutely! Do I believe they would ever have been able to attack the Sears Tower; it is highly doubful.
Since 9/11 the controls on explosives of all types have gotten much more stringent and local, state, and federal personnel are much more vigilant of these types of purchases.
The general public is also much more vigilant of these types of activities within the borders of the US. Which is why you don't hear much from US terrorist groups. (ie; Aryan Nations et al) Most of the US public does not want to see a repeat of the death and destruction which occurred on 9/11/2001.

I am sure they will not be the first, I want an 'America, Love it or Leave it" bumper sticker. I am so tired of these people who have more then anyone else in the world, who can open their mouths and say what they want, to anyone they want and all they can do it put this country down.
If you think this country is so bad, get out.
The FBI was doing their job. Of course, if the Sears Tower went down, people would say they are ineffective.
They did a job, and they did it well. Thanks FBI.

I do not know all of the information yet .. but I do not think they were really plotting. There was a lot of mis information going around on the news.. that does not seem to add up. Most appeared homeless, and lived in a warehouse .. I think it is a ploy to keep terrorism in the news. It is mid year elections and Republicans are WAY behind in the polls.. also FL is Jeb's state.. so as of now .. I think it is a ploy, but I do not have all of the facts as of yet, to confirm or unconfirmed this belief.. but I think the timing is TOO convenient

YES I DO! They look dumber than a bag of rocks but then again so did the idiots who flew planes into the World Trade Center. With these people...I think chinese law should apply..line em up against a wall and shoot em..then send the next of kin the bill for the bullit and tell them they got 48 hours to come claim the crap. If they did this all this anti-american crap would come to a screeching halt, cause they are all cowards or they wouldn't think of such things. There are way too many of these types of morons who think it to be cool or fashionable to trash this country, but you don't see em going anywhere else do ya...case in point.

They all lived together in a warehouse, they trained as military, and they were looking for funds.
They truely wanted to, could they have ever done it ??? maybe, doubtful, but they may have stolen some chemicals, or perhaps just took guns and shot up a mall or day care center instead when they failed to get bigger weapons,
Or just started using car bombs ( easy to make)
so they were a danger and there are more like this out there,

think of the effect, the biggest construction contained in usa crashes to the floor. the international commerce center purely did commerce. I recommend its greater of a symbolic ingredient then merely messing up business enterprise for Sears.

What happened in Miami is just further evidence that the threat to cause us harm (and kill us) still exists. We must be alert to suspicious activity and support our law enforcement authorities in them doing their jobs. We have along way to go to eliminate terrorism here and abroad.

I think it was entrapment. The Bush administration's poll numbers are slipping so they had to come up with something else to scare the American people.
Those guys were probably thugs, but terrorists....I doubt it.

YES...I think they were a part of a terrorist cell. However, I don't think it wise to concentrate all of our efforts on that one cell. It could be a decoy. I hope that the 'powers-that-be' in Washington (Bush and his people) have their eyes open and their ears to the ground...lest we be caught off guard...again!
