US Rep: No plot to poison food at SC Army base
The Sun News ^ | 28 Feb 10 | AP

Posted on 02/28/2010 8:46:22 PM PST by PilotDave

U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C., said Sunday information he received as a member of the House Armed Services Committee showed there was no plot. The five Muslim soldiers who were connected to a translator training program had been detained in December while the Army investigated.

"The investigation revealed that there was not an effort to poison food," Wilson said. The probe also showed the men had not been disloyal.

Four of the soldiers were discharged from the Army for petty crimes, Wilson said, and the fifth was returned to his National Guard unit in Virginia.

Define the actual “petty crimes”.

Would they tell us the truth if there was?

We have no hope of finding out about jihadist plots with our Marxist-in-Chief.

This is strange because previous articles said they ‘had been arrested’ at Ft.Jackson around the same time in December that the ‘pantie bomber’ attempt happened.

Arrested without probable evidence??

does anyone smell a cover up?

If they did nothing, why were they transferred?

This was the obyummers insane program to fast track, import muzzies (for translators) and give them citizenship after ONLY boot camp. Outrageous in and of itself, but a gilded invitation for jihadists to infiltrate.

Anyone could see that coming.

I hope this is the end to that insane program...

"An investigation continues into other possible crimes relating to information found on their laptops, Wilson said. The laptops were turned over to the FBI for analysis.

Neither Grey nor Wilson would elaborate on the ongoing investigation."


this whole thing stinks...

>>>This is strange because previous articles said they ‘had been arrested’ at Ft.Jackson around the same time in December

Articles apparently only based on information from Christian Broadcasting Network news, Pat Robertson’s outfit. Not exactly the gold standard of reporting. Hysteria and mob psychology then take over.

Story is still incomplete but shapes up as a few recruits being investigated for minor stuff, with the rumor mill then going into overdrive because of their religion and lynch mobs forming up. I wonder if the separations from service are actually legit or just CYA from the chain of command.

No I don’t think so, considering that is the excuse the Army gives for their separation. Also considering the comments on the earlier threads that were taking Pat at his word.

“Four of the soldiers were discharged from the Army for petty crimes,”

>>>Do you work for CAIR?

Are you still under psychiatric restraint and care ?
