I did a quick search and was a little surprised to not see anything posted on this. Maybe I care more than most because I just flew through there a couple days ago. Anyways:

Information that surfaced during the investigation, which included monitoring phone calls and tracking suspects’ movements, led the authorities to conclude that among the targets under consideration were the Ramstein Air Base, a crucial transportation hub for the American military, and Frankfurt International Airport.
The 12 vats of hydrogen peroxide collected by the suspects, when mixed with other chemicals, could produce a bomb with a force equal to 1,200 pounds of TNT, officials said
I saw that on the news the other day. Pretty crazy stuff. As a side note, I hate it when they say "a bomb with the force of 1,200 lbs of TNT". What the hell does that mean?
