The FBI has released a wanted poster with a photo of Rahami, 28.

The address of a home being searched by FBI agents in Elizabeth, New Jersey, is linked to a person with a similar name.

It’s funny how quick they were able to connect the dots. My guess is he was under suspicion by virtue of just being here and on a watch list of sorts.

So if we have a group of religious fanatics under some sort of serveilence why does it take the act of actually doing something vs prevention?

Rahami, originally from Afghanistan, was a naturalised US citizen

The NYPD anti-terrorism capabilities are truly impressive.

“We know there was a bombing,” in the city last night, the mayor said.


Wow. It’s really impressive to see the Mayor’s Big Brain in action. What a blazing genius!

I didn’t see it myself, but my son told me that someone on CNN was speculating that the bombing was carried out by a Trump supporter trying to gin up support for him.

It’s all much easier to understand once one realizes that ISIS = US State Department.

These are attacks sponsored by our own government.

“The FBI has released a wanted poster with a photo of Rahami, 28.”

Make it say “Wanted, dead or alive. $1 Million in cash paid on delivery of him to local LEO.”

He would show up strapped to the hood of a pickup by noon.

That seals it - Muslim name - naturalized from Afghanistan - not terrorism.

Let’s write the leftist script. Oppressed Muslim American striking back at all those who are denigrating and oppressing Muslims. Perfectly rational and understandable. The rest of us are racist haters and we need to be more accepting and tolerant. It’s our fault (at least the part of it that’s not Trump’s fault).

Five in custody?

Sounds like Amish profiling to me...
