INT MCU Counter terrorism expert Roger Cressey comments on that once a person goes operation to commit terrorist acts, that person must be taken down by the FBI. Roger Cressey states, "Once individuals decide to go operational, that is when the FBI has every responsibility to take them down, and thankfully that is what happened in Portland on Friday." The Portland Christmas Tree Bomb Plot, involved a FBI Sting Operation with Mohamed Osman Mohamud a Somali-American student. Mohamed tried detonating what he thought was a car bomb at a Christmas tree in Portland, Oregon. The FBI arrested him after he tried detonating the fake bomb.
