Australian Police Arrest Two Rabid Muslim Men Trying to Bomb Airliner In "Most Sophisticated Plot Ever"

Just Another One of the Minor Inconveniences We Put Up With For The Pleasure of Having All These Moderate Muslims As Our Friends and Neighbors

From Yahoo News:
Two men charged in connection with a foiled plot to bring down an airplane were also accused by Australian police of trying to build a device that could unleash poisonous gas in a public space. 
The two suspects, Khaled Khayat and Mahmoud Khayat, were charged Thursday night and appeared Friday morning in Parramatta Local Court in Sydney via video link from their jail cells, where they have been remanded in custody as they await a trial date. 
Each faces two counts of acts done in preparation for, or in planning, a terrorist act, and the charges carry a maximum penalty of life in prison. No plea was entered Friday. Australian police have not detailed whether the men are related. 
Michael Coroneos, the attorney for the two suspects, declined to answer questions outside court Friday, telling reporters, "They're entitled to the presumption of innocence." 
The would-be attackers were among four men arrested in Sydney on Saturday over allegations of a potential terrorist attack. 
One man was released from police custody without charge Tuesday. Another remained in custody without charge Friday under the country's "specified time" provisions, which allow for extended detention of suspects in terrorism investigations, according to the Australian Federal Police. 
Both Khaled Khayat and Mahmoud Khayat were allegedly linked to the twin terror schemes and allegedly received instructions from ISIS in Syria. 
Australian Federal Police told reporters Friday that authorities are confident they completely disrupted both plots, which the deputy commissioner for national security, Michael Phelan, described as "the most sophisticated" ever planned on Australian soil.
AND THEN THERE'S THIS FROM THE LAST ENGLISH PRINCE:

LUKE AND JOHN ARRESTED IN FOILED TERROR PLOT 
Well, not exactly. Khaled and Mahmoud were arrested: Trying to hide an IED in a meat grinder seems a bit over the top 
But once again: Dual citizenship. 
And they hate the Aussies who gave them passage to the West. We have a problem. 
Who imagined ending up as human components of a missile directed at the Twin Towers? But yet – thousands of individuals lived that nightmare. 
Who imagines entering a metal tube which is turned into a gas chamber mid-flight? 
Think evil does not exist? Think again.
