He may have had a passport, but it really doesn’t matter if he didn’t present it.

Another Eyewitness report said that they overheard ZZ(Sharp Dressed Man) telling a gate agent that PB(Panty Bomber) didn’t have a passport and we “Do this all the time”.

There is something very-very wrong here.

This administration has turned into the Devil Incarnate and will do anything to further it’s ideology of ‘One World Government’. Our president is not one of us.

Mr Haskell may be going public to protect himself.

If Obama gets his way, a terrorist attack on American soil that kills on the level of 9/11 will mean instant martial law and directives to confiscate property and weapons and setup “communities,” the new ghetto

You have a good point there.

It seems foolish of Haskell(?) to expend so much of his time and
energy if he’s making up the whole thing.

I don’t know about Mr. Haskell...
but I do recall the experience of actor James Woods and one of the
flight attendents on the same flight out of Boston (same flight number)
when they reported suspicious activities by Middle Eastern types
before 9-11.

The FBI apparently “round-filed” their reports as something like
“profiling”.

It was interesting (and sad as well) to see Woods on “The Tonight Show”
relating his experience to Leno; this was about the time the multi-episode
“The Path To 9-11” aired.
Woods said he was awoken in the early morning hours of 9-12-01
(6:30 AM?) by FBI agents knocking on the door of his LA residence.

I hope we won’t have a repeat...with Mr. Haskell getting a repeat
call by the FBI after ANOTHER 9-11 event on American soil.

I’m ok with the government keeping some things secret. IMHO (sorry IBM) they have covered up numerous terrorist incidents. I used to think they were doing this to deny the terrorists the PR benefit of their attack.

Now I think much of these types of things are kept secret for political reasons. I find that unacceptable.

I have said this since my first few days in law enforcement: The FBI benefits from the greatest PR on the planet.

They got nothing going for them. They are accountants, lawyers, and computer nerds with guns.

There was another report by a lady and her daughter that a man video taped the entire flight. It may have been this guy they pulled out of the room. A dog would not have alerted for a camera though.

The witness described the “sharply dressed” and “the man in orange” as Indian men. I believe they’re most likely Pakistanis rather than Indians.

My gut says they might be ISI the Pakistani Intelligence Service.

What they are doing, I do not know.

“Maybe the FBI is waterboarding this guy and prevented other attacks from happening.”

Is that before or after they read him his miranda rights and assign a public defender?

A portion of the ISI supports the Taliban/al Qaeda axis. Things are getting difficult for the terrorists to succeed without "official" help.

“I think we deserve to know if there was a live bomb on that plane.

the question is why didn’t they detonate it?”

What ever the dog alerted on could have been live or just a “test” device, we will likely never know. The fact that Mr. Haskell said there was a “cameraman” filming makes me wonder if this was a dress rehearsal. In other words sacrifice some low level incompetents with a device that had a substandard ignition to actively test security in a real world environment.

Thank you. I've been asking why we haven't heard any more about the camera guy (I'm counting him as terrorist #4) and no one seems aware of him.

I heard from two different reporters that a federal agency (FBI or Customs) was now admitting that another man has been held (and will be held indefinitely) since our flight landed for "immigration reasons." Notice that this man was "being held" and not "arrested", which was a cute semantic ploy by the FBI to stretch the truth and not lie

The FBI enforces border patrol now? Even local police agencies are "restricted" from doing that, at least that's what liberal mayors claim.

This morning I heard on the news that BO was going to look into what went wrong with Flight 253. The first thing I thought was yeah he’s going to look into it let the terrorists know where they went wrong. I just hope that in 2010 Republican’s (real ones) demand investigations into all of BO’s cabinet and czars. Call me paranoid but BO is the first to really scare me. The man has evil within him.

There were several other people who were taken into custody during the Ft. Hood massacre. I tried finding ANY details on why they were suspects at the time but nothing came up, we were just told that they were released and not charged.

I know in the midst of a breaking news story, some details may get misreported but I was listening to the police scanner online that day.

Everyone has heard that the 3 men “behind the fence” in Dallas were bums. But at least they were accounted for.

Ever since OKC, we’ve been told “John Doe #2” (or whoever) just plain does not exist.

What the heck is going on here?
Is the FBI being ‘directed’ by higher ups??

I suspect so.

And Haskell seems to be the only one with the cojones to speak the truth so far.

Look for Haskell’s odds at your preferred internet ghoul pool.
