Huh? So the FBI wasn't capable of tracking their little sheep,but the school should have been able to?
I'm pretty sure the school is U Mass at Dartmouth. Not the Ivy League school Dartmouth College. Dartmouth College is in Hanover, New Hampshire.
Saudi arrested with pressure cooker at Detroit airport Customs officials noticed a page missing from his passport, then found the pressure cooker during an examination of his baggage, according to authorities. Al Kwawahir said he brought the pressure cooker for his nephew because the devices are not sold in the United States, according to the complaint. He later changed his story, saying his nephew had bought a pressure cooker in the U.S. but it was broken. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/05/13/saudi-arrested-with-pressure-cooker-at-detroit-airport/
Missing page in the passport. I wonder where he'd been that he didn't want people knowing about? The bright side to all of this crap is that terrorism is becoming an amateur sideshow with unstable rejects as the prime time players.
The real terrorists are going to move on now that terrorism is mainstream, since its no longer cool. I wonder what trend they will move to next... hopefully youtube videos of basket weaving, or planking.
what dumb motherf----- would go into that situation with a pressure cooker in his shit,after Boston. Thats so f----- stupid i might believe his story.
I'm thinking the really good news is that the cabals lost the War vs the West conversation that was going on in the Middle East over the last fifteen years. The terrorists who manned the planes on 9/11 were really scary people. Engineers, physicists, doctors, you know, really smart people who were really warped. Now we get idiots, anvils and dynamite out of that movement instead of the people who might really damage us. I think Iraq is what did it. I think when the cabals started indiscriminately slaughtering Muslims, who were by far the majority of their victims over there, they lost their legitimacy and became just thugs with explosives. Huge difference in the image and huge difference in their recruiting potential.
I agree with you. I believe they even found some correspondence from Al-Qaida center and AQ-Iraq that seemed to back up your assumption (home office was worried about the Iraqi franchise giving them a black eye). You're talking about the difference between Robin Hood and Hannibal Lechter, in Western Cultural terms.
However one b ig problem now is we are funding the "freedom fighters" in Syria now. 400 million dollars in the last few months. Just to give you an idea of who we are funding they kidnapped 2 Filipino UN PeaceKeepers over the weekend. They let them go unharmed but we are now following the same plan of action that fucked us 30 years ago in Afghanistan. Do we ever learn from our mistakes? Why are we giving these people money anyway? Assad might not be the best person but he is much better than an alternative rebel group that has been infiltrated by AQ.
The big problem with our Syria policy is that we're not in or out. We're hedging our bets in a way that ensures that we will reap many of the negative consequences of failure without a lot of the benefits of success no matter which way it goes. The bigger Russia question is absolutely crippling our responses here. With Syria on fire now and Iran next in line we're spending most of our time trying to prevent WWIII from breaking out accidentally. To illustrate how totally screwed up the situation is: Israel is pro-Syrian government and as anti-Iran as you can get. So even our main ally in the regional conflict is sending us mixed signals.
As I've written several times before, the U.S. has indirectly supported the Syrian Rebels for over a year despite their terrorist ties. Welcome to American Foreign Policy: where our enemies kill our enemies until those enemies become our greatest threat. 1980s Afghanistan all over again.
Man Killed by FBI After Being Questioned About the Boston Bombing Dashiell Bennett 7:48 AM ET An FBI special agent shot and killed a man in Orlando, Florida, on Wednesday morning, just hours after he was interrogated about the Boston Marathon bombings. The man, who was identified as 27-year-old Ibragim Todashev, was reportedly an acquaintance of Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who he met through the world of mixed martial arts. Like Tsarnaev, he was Chechen-born Muslim, but only met Tsarnaev after moving to the United States. Todashev was shot shortly after midnight at an apartment complex about 10 miles from Walt Disney World. The FBI only said that an agent "encountered the suspect while conducting official duties. The suspect is deceased," but has not offered any other details. Khusn Taramiv, a friend of Todashev, told WESH-TV that they were both interviewed by the FBI for three hours on Tuesday, and the men were asked what they knew about Tsarnaev and were also asked about their political views. Taramiv also claims that Todashev thought that he was being "set up" and expressed concerns that something bad was going to happen to them. Taramiv says they had both been followed by the FBI on more than one occasion since the Boston terrorist attack. In this interview, Taramiv says his friend was contacted the day after the Boston suspects were first identified. Todashev has recently been arrested for aggravated assault but his friend says he was attacked in a parking lot and was simply defending himself. Taramiv says his friend has been planning to head home to Chechnya to visit relatives, via New York City, but had canceled the trip due to "pushing" by the FBI. The suspect's friend says they are both Muslim, but not radical, and says Todashev does not own a gun. Jon Williams of the BBC reported that the FBI agent conducting the interview shot Todashev, because he felt threatened. http://www.theatlanticwire.com/national/2013/05/fbi-shooting-orlando-boston-marathon/65476/
Im sure there is a perfectly good explanationamundo! Sounds like the part of goodfellas when they find carbone in the meat truck,the fat dude in the pink caddy.
I find myself strangely hypnotized by that glorious mess of a nose hovering over that tiny coin-slot of a mouth. I desperately need to see his parents.
