2 Men Accused of Trying To Make X-Ray Weapon

gurps_npc writes "Two radical pro-Israel terrorists were caught in upstate NY when they tried to solicit money from various honorable Jewish organizations to build a truck based x-ray weapon. They intended to drive the truck around and then turn on the x-ray machine, focusing on enemies of Israel. But the Jewish organizations they tried to solicit money from refused to participate. Instead they called the FBI, who promptly set up a sting. The men were arrested before the machine was in working order."

Supremely Irresponsible Reporting. Shame on /.

[Anonymous Coward]

Slashdot's report of this news has now clarified to me that one or more of the following is taking place:

1) The editors at Slashdot who curate the submissions don't bother to check the basic sources
2) The editors at Slashdot have some sort of Antisemitic agenda

Why would I say that? If you bother to read the second sentence of the article you will notice that the weapon builders were not Jews. Rather, they tried to get some Jewish organizations to sponsor such a weapon, something which they would have no part of, so they promptly called the FBI.

Why open your clip with the words "Two radical pro-Israel terrorists"? These same "Jews" also contacted the KKK for funding. They are just a couple of low lives looking to make a quick buck.

This is purely laughable reporting on Slashdot's part, and I have lost my trust in your ability to report without bias. This is not negligence, it is clear bias.

Yes. A "moderate terrorist" is anyone in a roomful of conservatives who peacefully states that there is overwhelming scientific support for the reality of Global Warming.
