Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).
Two foreign men living in Canada have been charged with plotting to blow up a passenger train with support from Al-Qaeda in Iran.
Officers with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police took Chiheb Esseghaier, 30, and Raed Jaser, 35, into custody Monday. The two men have been charged in connection with a plot to derail a VIA passenger train in the Toronto area.
The RCMP said there is evidence they were supported by “Al-Qaeda elements in Iran” but there was no evidence of the Iran government funding the plot. Al-Qaeda, with a radical anti-Shia ideology, is at odds with the Shia led government in Iran.
Police strongly stated multiple times there was no immediate threat to the public. The plot was only in the “planning stage”.
“Each and every terrorist arrest the RCMP makes sends a message and illustrates our strong resolve to root out terrorist threats and keep Canadians and our allies safe,” Assistant RCMP Commissioner James Malizia said during a press conference.
The RCMP said that the FBI was involved in the operation to apprehend the would-be terrorists. They said the plot had no connection to the Boston Marathon bombing.
