Aug. 16 - A terrorist plot to attack military and Jewish sites in the Los Angeles area this coming Sept. 11 was devised inside a cell at the New Folsom State Prison, a maximum-security prison outside Sacramento, Calif.

Law enforcement officials told ABC News that Peter Martinez, a former Oakland street gang member, and his cellmate Kevin James organized the plot and recruited as many as 13 other inmates in a jihad against the United States. The two inmates have since been placed in special confinement, according to officials.

"Al Qaeda recruits in prisons. They really do," said Edward Caden, a retired prison administrator in California. "Prisons are a prime, prime target for terrorist recruiting. It is a ripe population."

The plot, which called for dozens of casualties as part of a holy war against the United States, was foiled after Levar Washington, a former inmate at the Folsom Prison, and his accomplice were arrested for a string of gas station robberies.

Washington had entered prison a convicted thief and left as a militant black Muslim who had sworn allegiance to a violent jihad, according to law enforcement authorities.

Intent to 'Kill Everyone'

The FBI says Washington, after being released late last year, started to plan attacks on synagogues and a military recruiting center in Santa Monica, Calif.

A law enforcement report obtained by ABC News says the attacks were to take place on Sept. 11, and "the intent was to kill everyone at the target."

"He regarded Osama bin Laden very highly," claimed one man who wished to remain anonymous for fear of other cell members still at large. He said Washington tried to recruit him and others in Los Angeles to join the terror group.

"He really believed that the Muslim world is majorly oppressed right now," continued the attempted recruit, "and their only way out is to fight jihad by harming innocent people."

The terror plot was thwarted when Washington and his accomplice were apprehended. Although he had no previous criminal record, Washington's accomplice was in the midst of the 15-day waiting period to buy a high-powered rifle, according to police.

The Imam of a Los Angeles mosque that Washington attended said he was surprised by the level of hatred for America that Washington had developed in prison.

"It strikes me as pretty strange that a person would come out full of anger and frustration and channel his direction of frustration at this particular angle," Imam Kharsay said.

Prisons should be filled with dirty magazines instead of Korans.   Keeps the mind on the mind.

I agree with you. I think the big spectacular attacks like on 9/11 are less likely than car bombs, human bombs and firearm attacks in the future.

Not only will having these type of attacks suck, but it will open up law abiding citizens who own personal firearms for defense to more BS anti-gun measures.

I think the problem here is the ole' "it's not going to happen here" The general population doesn't seem to believe that we could see car bombs, suicide bombers and so on. It is up to us to keep ourselves safe, so keep an eye on everyone around you.

I've said since 9/12 that small towns, small parks/attractions and churches would be hit next.
Nothing would cripple us more than the notion that rural America is unsafe.
Carry if you can boys!

Prison officials allow the preaching of Islam in prison because they were hoping it would cut down butt-raping in jail. Seriously, a lot of disaffected, unemployed, drugged up kids in Muslim countries are "cleaned up" by religion.  Unfortunately, some of the imams are wackos that promptly send the kids to their deaths as suicide troops.

Sarge I think about the best you're going to do is be able to influence the people with whom you have contact and who agree with you.  And to then prepare accordingly.

I think Americans, most of them anyway, are asleep.

You're preaching to the choir here.....

No they are mostly Christian, like every other large group in America that doesn't organize along faith lines.

It goes with the fact that the nation is majority Christian.
