Virginia man charged in alleged plot to assassinate Bush By MATTHEW BARAKAT

Associated Press Writer

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) -- A former high school valedictorian in Virginia was charged Tuesday with conspiring to assassinate President Bush and conspiracy to support the al-Qaida terrorist network.

Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, 23, a U.S. citizen, made an initial appearance Tuesday in U.S. District Court. He claimed that he was tortured while detained in Saudi Arabia since June of 2003 and offered through his lawyer to show the judge his scars.

The indictment said that in 2002 and 2003 Abu Ali and an unidentified coconspirator discussed plans for Abu Ali to assassinate Bush. They discussed two scenarios, the indictment said, one in which Abu Ali "would get close enough to the president to shoot him on the street" and, alternatively, "an operation in which Abu Ali would detonate a car bomb."

Wonder if the parents of this slug had "an honor student" bumper sticker on their family vehicle? No, but they did have a "my other car is a bomb" bumper sticker.

"A former high school valedictorian..."

My guess is that it was a public school.

Exactly, the terrorists all seem to come from Norway and practice Christianity.

Ahmed Omar Abu-Ali probably goes by the nickname, A. Smith or O. Jones.

lol

What? AP and ABC aren't MSM enough for you?

It almost always helps to visit the linked source before commenting. The big ABC header might have given it away.

Of course, had you done so, you would not have been able to take your gratuitous swipe at the MSM.

To which the judge replied, "Why do you think we left you in Saudi Arabia for a year?"

It seems that there are mentally ill criminals around the world attempting or having wish assassination of President Bush. I think it was Guardian on-line months ago that an editorial was asking where were those who have assassinate the president in the past on the editorial indicating a wish for the assassination of President Bush, which was deleted hours later. I have also heard that some one on a Japanese Bulletin Board System called the 2ch.net was wishing for and assassination of President Bush and asking people for methods. These mentally ill liberal criminals that justify assassination of the president while criticizing Iraq War are really sick and self centered. I hope FBI and CIA will hunt each one down and punish them.

LOL. Methinks it's closer to "HowieDeanieTime" though.

More than 100 supporters of Abu Ali crowded the courtroom and laughed when the charge was read aloud alleging that he conspired to assassinate Bush.

Laughed, huh? Well I hope Homeland Security is keeping tabs on these clymers...

What does plotting to assassinate the president have to do with being roughed up in a Saudi prison? Sounds like he's following the al Qaeda handbook to me

Those alleged "scars" on his body that he's so anxious to show probably came from his father whipping him for looking at a young girl's ankles while he was in high school.

The scar cop-out will never play in Peoria.

(....maybe in Mess-achusetts, or Cali-foreignia, but not in Peoria.
