Did Yemen man yell 'Allahu Akbar' in incident outside cockpit door?

Did Yemen man yell 'Allahu Akbar' in incident outside cockpit door near San Francisco Airport?

Police said Almurisi had no known ties to terrorist organizations. He was subdued by flight attendants and passengers who assisted the flight attendants in handcuffing the man to a seat.

The incident happened as the jet was over Modesto, about 15 minutes outside of San Francisco. Almurisi was arrested when the plane landed at San Francisco International. He was taken to San Mateo County Medical Center where he was treated for abrasions to his elbow and chin that he got as the result of being tackled, police said. One of the passengers who assisted in subduing Almurisi was a retired Secret Service agent, another a retired San Mateo Police officer. Almurisi was subsequently taken to San Mateo County Jail.

The unanswered question is the man’s motive. Almurisi was carrying a Yemeni passport and a California ID card. Police said the man was shouting something “unintelligible” when he tried to storm the cockpit door.

A woman whose said her parents were on the flight, told the Armstrong and Getty Radio show that the man shouted “Allahu Akbar” when he tried to storm the door. The caller said her parents are Syrian Christians who were returning from a trip to Israel where they visited the Holy Land. But she said that her parents were never interviewed by police.

If the only two people on the plane who speak Arabic say he was shouting "Allahu Akbar" I think it was a pretty good chance he was.

What else do people think he would be shouting?

Very strange that they were not interviewed by law enforcement.

Will obama order the Yemeni man to be “cleaned” and “bathed” just like the fictitious corpse he called Osama bin laden?

Obama is insistent that no domestic terrorism has occurred under his watch. In spite of the Ft. Hood Massacre, the recruiting center shooting, the Christmas plane bomber...

So what if 4 incidents at airports/airlines all occur in one day. And at least one is Yemenease. Is coicidence!

Maybe the guy just wanted another drink from the alcohol bar located in the front of the plane.

His lawyer will argue that the words “Allahu Akbar” are often used by rural Yemenis who mean “I HAVE TO TAKE A LEAK” and that the poor man obviously mistook the cockpit door for the toilet.

Easy mistake, could have happened to anyone. Nothing to see here, let’s all move along and get to the important part — which is deciding how much he should be compensated for the way he was savagely attacked by the flight attendant and other passengers.

” Allahu Akbar” translates as “ Shoot me!” in Arabic

Yeah, that was probably it. He was just asking directions to the “all you can drink, Alc. bar” and some right wing racist misinterpreted it.

Thankfully we have the great Obama to lead us from our misunderstandings and protect us from all bin Ladens. /sarc

‘Allahu Akbar’ on a plane? That’s like shouting “fire” in a crowded theater. He’s lucky he got away with a few scrapes.

Was he a Muslim? If he was, then he was tied to a terrorist organization.

According to Babblefish:

Allahu Akbar = I Love Satan

"If you listen to the passengers and crew who flew on American Airlines Flight 1561 last weekend, there's no doubt about what happened on their harrowing trip: A Yemeni man shrieking "Allahu akbar!" at the top of his lungs more than 30 times rushed the cockpit door twice intending to take down the plane and kill everyone on board."
