According to AP, two men pulled over for speeding "were being held pending a charge of unlawful possession of an explosive device." There is one report that the men were of Middle-Eastern descent. They were pulled over about 7 miles away from the Naval Weapons Station in Goose Creek. Of course, Michelle Malkin and others are all over it.
One thing I haven't seen mentioned anywhere else is that, among other things, the Naval Weapons Station is home to the Navy's Moored Training Ship (MTS) site. For non-submariners, MTS's are former ballistic missile submarines that have been affixed to the pier where their still operational propulsion plants are used for training Navy nuclear operators.
If they were trying to deliver a bomb, and if they were going to the Naval Weapons Station (two big "ifs"), if makes one wonder what their target might have been.
As an aside, why do so many [alleged] criminals get tripped up when they get caught for some minor, unrelated offense - or the police just get lucky (the millennium plot, for example)? Either these people are really stupid, God is on our side, or some combination of the two. Getting nailed for speeding while you're driving around with a bomb in your car - geez...
- Gee
