A Newport Michigan couple, who were on board Northwest Airline flight 253, report that an Indian man tried to get Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab on board the plane without a passport. The couple also allege that a different Indian man was arrested after the plane had landed when a bomb sniffing dog detected a bomb in his carry on bag. And, now this:
A Wisconsin family aboard the plane that Nigerian man Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is accused of trying to bomb on Christmas Day said another passenger videotaped the entire flight including the attempted detonation of explosives, local media reports.What else is the Obama administration hiding from us?Patricia and Charlie Keepman from Oconomowoc, Wisconsin were sitting about 20 rows behind Abdulmutallab on Northwest Flight 253 from Amsterdam to Detroit.
They said another passenger sitting in front of them had videotaped the moment Abdulmutallab set fire to explosives that authorities believe were sewn into his underwear.
"This person actually was videotaping it," Mr Keepman said.
Mrs Keepman told 620WTMJ's "Wisconsin's Morning News: "He sat up and videotaped the entire thing, very calmly."
"We do know that the FBI is looking for him intensely. Since then, we've heard nothing about it."
She said her daughter Ricki, one of two children the couple had adopted from Ethiopia, witnessed the videotaping incident...
Fedral officials had no immediate comment on the Keepman's claims...
Probably an al Jazeera reporter trying for an exclusive "on-the-scene as-it-happens" scoop.
The only logic behind filming would be that it was a trial run.
His Birth Certificate?
BS Meter reading full scale.
I can imagine why but I can’t imagine no one saying anything about a man taping an entire flight
ie his handlers gave him bogus explosives and had agents tail him to document the process!?! I wouldn't doubt that. Will air security start checking inside the seams of passenger's underwear now? I doubt it so that aspect of the operation is still workable.
Other than the bombing attempt, that must have been a real thriller of a tape. Next the guy is going to tape his living room ceiling for a week.
That tape is history. If it is exists, then the feds will gobble that up and it will go away. “Oops, it broke. Sorry dude.”
Yes.
So we have at least three conspirators on the plane and another helping them to board.
And its a trial run. Weird.
The other guy with a bomb arrested after deplaning. Why didn't he just set his off aboard the plane?
Trial run?
