Orlando International Terror Plot?
AM 540 WFLA Radio ^ | 9/10/07 | Bud Hedinger

"Credible Security Risk" Those are the words of the pilot on Delta Flight 1824 out of OIA, after it pulled back from the gate Friday morning to take off for Atlanta. Nine Middle Eastern passengers, six males and three females, had been denied access to the plane when TSA screeners found they were carrying an array of suspicious items ranging from hydrogen peroxide, which can be used to make bombs, to wires and Vaseline bottles taped together. Perhaps most disturbing, what one TSA worker tells me were the first positive tests for SEMTEX ever reported by security at OIA. SEMTEX is considered the bomb making material of choice by Islamic terrorists. In addition, a couple of them also had improper identification. The suspicious passengers were denied access to the flight, but ultimately...(are you ready for this?)...they were allowed to go on their way after questioning by airport officials and Orlando police!

“they were allowed to go on their way after questioning by airport officials and Orlando police!”

What was their legal status in the U.S.?
Are they under surveilance?

Al Queda has OCD. They are forever sending out squads of terrorists to test defenses and see what they can get away with. The evil CAIR and their Flying Imans lawsuit have an obvious role here.

My impression is that this was one of their test runs.

They let them go onto their final destination, Saudi Arabia.

Who’d a thunk it?

To: All
yeah, but was there a act in furtherance of any conspiracy? I mean just because a policeman finds a loaded gun in the hand of customer in a convenience store in the middle of the night with a fiend outside behind the wheel of a stolen car with the engine running, doesn’t mean the “gentleman” intended to rob the money from the store cash register! Especially if the gentleman was of very dark completion, we all know they need to carry guns to protect them selves against Christian conservatives.

If it was a crime, I would’ve been put away a long time before Mrs. Jazzy 1 AND 2 came along!

Jeez - these animals just never give up. Wanna bet this was another ‘dry run’ designed to see what they can get past the TSA?

Looks like they were testing our system for weakness. Looks like they found one!
