Iraq Connection?

(Fox News) - Pennsylvania Democrat John Murtha is blaming the U.S. involvement in Iraq for the recently-announced terror plot against JFK airport, for which three suspects from Guyana have been arrested and another from Trinidad is being sought.

Murtha told ABC's George Stephanopoulos — "This is the kind of thing that's happening because of our troops in Iraq... Our presence in Iraq, our occupation of Iraq gives these people the inspiration... We didn't have this kind of problem before... Our presence in Iraq is inspiring them to recruit people all over the world."

However the indictment says the mastermind of the plot first conceived his plan more than a decade ago — when he worked at the airport.
