California Man Who Allegedly Had 2 IEDs in His Car in Brea Is Charged
2018-09-25
[KTLA] A Salinas man was charged with four felony counts after being found with two homemade bombs in his vehicle at a traffic stop in Brea on Tuesday night, authorities said.

Saleh Ali, 47, was charged Thursday with intent to unlawfully make a destructive device, two counts of possession of a destructive device, and the sale and transportation of a destructive device, the Orange County District Attorney’s Office announced Friday.
But they were Peace IEDs. Made with Love Shrapnel.
The DA’s office described the bombs as “improvised explosive devices,” and said they were “containers covered in shrapnel.”

The devices were taken by an Orange County sheriff’s bomb squad and Ali was arrested and put in Orange County Jail. Police said Thursday his bail was set at $500,000.

If convicted as charged, Ali will receive a maximum sentence of 10 years in state prison.

He is due in court for a pre-trial hearing on Friday, Sept. 28.

#6  Salinas is several hundred miles north of Orange County - this is reminiscent of the Bataclan theatre attack in Paris, where weapons supply came from operatives in Belgium, and the operatives then returned to Belgium after the attack. What are the muslim demographics of Salinas?

#4  No evidence they are willing to tell us, or no evidence they are willing to see?

Name not found in the ISIS table of organization seems to have become the meaning of that. All troubled Muslims who self-radicalize via the internet, or simply give in to the voices in their heads and run amok now fall into that category.

#3  There is no evidence so far that shows any connection to a terrorist organization.

No evidence they are willing to tell us, or no evidence they are willing to see?

Nothing about the "T" word?
