Did President Obama & Eric Holder Suspend Another Bush Era Terrorist Investigation?

We all know AG Eric Holder’s ‘Justice’ Department (sort of a oxymoron these days) closed down Bush era terrorist investigations into Major Nidal Hasan (killer in the Ft Hood Massacre) and probably also into radical US-born cleric al Aulaqi (see here, here and here for details). It is pretty obvious that shutting down the surveillance of these American traitors working with our enemies also gave Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab an opening to nearly bring down a plane full of passengers on Christmas Day as it landed in Detroit, MI.

Eric Holder is a joke as the leader of our Justice Department/ Like most other Obama appointments he is entirely incompetent.

Picked for his association with the President and not for competence.

Still he is not to blame for many of the problems at Justice as he is merely a puppet on the strings of Obama.

What did authorities know about Faisal Shahzad? Terror task force noticed him in 2004

Deep inside a New York Times profile of the accused Times Square bomber — “From Suburban Father to a Terrorism Suspect” – there is this:

George LaMonica, a 35-year-old computer consultant, said he bought his two-bedroom condominium in Norwalk, Conn., from Mr. Shahzad for $261,000 in May 2004. A few weeks after he moved in, Mr. LaMonica said, investigators from the national Joint Terrorism Task Force interviewed him, asking for details of the transaction and for information about Mr. Shahzad. It struck Mr. LaMonica as unusual, but he said detectives told him they were simply “checking everything out.

In recent terrorism cases, the Ft. Hood shooting and the attempted Christmas Day bombing, we learned that authorities knew about the perpetrators before the attacks took place. It seems reasonable to guess that, given Faisal Shahzad’s background, travel patterns, communications habits and associations, that the authorities knew something about him, too. The next few days might tell us a lot.

From this article we see the big story here is not the regime's swift response to the incident; rather, it's the regime's total failure to carry on the intelligence gathering that would have prevented the incident in the first place. That being so, we're guaranteed to have more atrocities where the Mudslime perps finally figure out how to build or acquire effecive detonators.

BHO is the first Anti-American president and is hurting our country on a daily basis.

You forgot to add that Obama is attacking the country on purpose.

You can now understand why Bush was attacked with impeachment threats throughout his administration. The purpose was to make you numb to that news as now we need impeachment hearings to start ASAP with a traitor in the White House.

AN EMAIL ON THE TIMES SQUARE BOMBING:

I was curious about Shahzad’s background.

This AP report above suggests that his wife is Pashtun. And Shehzad seems to be one of the sub-tribes of the Ghilzai federation.

The Ghilzai is the main tribal group supporting the Taliban. It’s Mullah Omar’s tribe.

i.e. Shahzad might indeed be our first true American Taliban.

If people are going to start profiling Pakistanis, we might as well identify the correct group. Maybe there are some experts among your readers.

Any thoughts?
