X-ray weapon plot to kill Muslims: Eric Feight jailed
Staff writer and wires, AP

SYDNEY: -- HE was known as “Yoda” and “Software Guy”. But there was nothing wise or benign about the plot Eric Feight was involved in.

The 57-year-old systems engineer has admitted building a remote control for a mobile X-ray machine designed to kill Muslims in total silence.

Feight, from upstate New York, pleaded guilty in 2014 to providing material support to terrorists and was this week sentenced to eight years behind bars.

He told a US District Court he was first approached by Glendon Scott Crawford, the plot’s mastermind and member of the Ku Klux Klan, to help create a mobile X-ray device to sterilise medical waste.

Feight said he only learned later that the machine was intended for use to target Muslim terrorist cells operating in the US.

“Potential targets were never discussed with me,” Feight said.

He thought he was clever with his X-ray plan but the police saw right through him.

Interesting that they can identify, investigate and arrest an Anti-Muslim terrorist, but usually are clueless when it comes to likely jihadists.

Did he happen to post an "how to build", before his arrest?

Quick to use the word terrorist too.

Gotta admit it's pretty clever though.

Medical Waste...

New terminology for an old problem.

If it wasn't for Bush there would be no ISIS to blame Obama for.

Besides the sickness of this OP one can hardly overlook that the US TSA does the same thing to flyers regularly, is known to have refused pertinent data release proving the danger of such machines, and more or less still uses machines that daily radiate people under the premise of "for your own protection." But since the government can declare who can and cannot inflict their good upon others it is okay. Morally, it is no different.

OMG...can you imagine the market for this device...to obtain a little pay-back with the X-wife? Ladies!

No as much as I dislike Bush, it started when the USA supported their freedom fighter Bin Laden in Afghanistan.

The Soviets, by the way, called them Muslim Terrorists.
