I don't believe this in the least. You have stated previously that all persons convicted of terrorist plots in the US are known by the press. Anything else has been just other probes or events according to you, but none of which therefore appear to have even risen to the level of an arrest. If the government can't make the case for an arrest, then I don't think these "incidents" are of any great importance.
