Portuguese term (edited):
não tem com o quê, nem porque
has neither the means nor the wherewithal
e.g.,
The guy has neither the means nor the wherewithal to rebel.
In other words, these guys had neither the means nor the wherewithal to actually pull off any of these attacks. And an FBI informant helped them take action

In this regard I’d like to refer him to Dr. Sarath Gamini de Silva’s article: he defends sponsorship from drug companies as the Ministry of Health has neither the means nor the wherewithal to educate, train or otherwise update the knowledge and skills of practising consultants of this country.
