New Shoebomber Claims Diplomatic Immunity
http://www.noliburls.com/ConservativeNews.aspx/2201623 ^

Posted on 04/07/2010 7:32:24 PM PDT by jentilla

Coming across Twitter…reports that there was an alleged shoebomber attempt on a DC to Denver flight.

At Ace of Spades, Gabriel Malor is doing breaking news reporting and contacted Denver International Airport. He’s got fresh details:

(9:56) Talked to media contact at DIA. They’re calling it a “security disturbance”. The plane was from Reagan to DIA. It was met upon arrival by the TSA, FBI, and airport PD. It will have no impact on airport operations. There are no flight holds at present.

Later (9:59) He’s got a diplomatic passport and is claiming diplomatic immunity.

The passport is from Qatar.

I fly in and out of Denver a couple times a month. Your statement is a bit hyperbolic. They are not all Somali Muslims.

Right you are. Many are Bosnian Muslims, and more than a few are Iraqi Muslims.

Quite possibly, there are. But most of the staff I’ve seen have not been dark and swarthy looking. Lots of Nordic/Germanic appearing men and women. Detroit, D.C, Newark, Chicago, New York.....well, that’s a different story.

Do diplomats have rights when they attempt to kill hundreds?

If a diplomat attempts to kill hundreds it is an act of war by the originating country. Nuke the muslim enemy out of existence.

Oh, wait..

NBC reporting no explosives in his shoes. He was smoking a cigarette in the bathroom and made a joke about setting his shoes on fire to the air marshall.

-——————————————Yeah, I’m sure NBC will report accurately. The guy just wanted to know if his shoelaces would burn right? Right?

Take him back aloft at the point of infraction, then escort him out of the aircraft so his diplomatic immunity can cushion his status.

“When the government of Qatar fires him (which they will), his immunity disappears. Try him and lock him up.”

This is the proper way that governments, even those hostile to us, deal with the rogue behavior of a diplomat. Even our government would do this.

Ah, a war criminal peasant has diplomatic immunity? Since when? There are limits to these.

But hey, who cares, money laundering, what not. We got abortion, free drugs, and now all politicians have whorocratic immunity.

I watched an episode of “The Invaders” last night from Netflix. It is not as good as I remembered way back in 1967 but still good enough to watch.

I just love how they burned up when killed and how easy it was to kill them. The special effects were really weak and the budgets must have been small tho there are a surprising number of stars who were not stars at the time.

The country represented by a “diplomat” can waive that individual’s diplomatic immunity if it wants to.

ABC News, which first reported the story, described the incident as an

attempted “shoe bomb” attack, citing unnamed authorities.

Flights in the Middle East can be quite pungent. I tend to gulp deep breaths of air as soon as I get outside of any Middle Eastern airport.
