Obviously they were aiming for Cuba when they set out from Yemen on their raft.

The currents must have sent them astray.

Heard the NJ cops caught U.S. residents of Middle Eastern descent after 9/11, one of them in Bayonne, who were apparently plotting to go after bridges in the area.

Never to almost never hear this talked about.

Since its summertime...I'll keep this post topical to the season...

CANNONBALLLLLLLL!!!!!!

See, problem solved...We all know Yemeni's can't swim...

When I was younger, I was the king of cannonball at my summer camp...

The "can-opener" was another good water displacer as well...

Will these numbnuts ever learn???

I'm guessing they were fishin'. Lots of Yemenis grow up fishin'. Yep. That's what I think.

Really two choices here for the US and UK and other European countries alike:

1. We can try to evacuate every place the enemy is going to strike just before they strike.

Not practical as we can all clearly see.

2. We can try to get the government to evacuate the enemy, legally kick these people out, detain them, or take them out, and also not let them in in the first place.

Which is it going to be?

Guess the MSM can make that determination immediately huh? Somehow, the Dims still haven't been able to determine if 9/11 was terrorism yet the MSM can make that determination before the ink is dry on their article.

No. This [ http://www.pulitzer.org/year/2005/breaking-news-photography/works/warzone%20015.jpg ] is them. Notice that they are baiting their rods in this picture and getting ready to board their boat.

They should have blown them out of the water, like in the beginning of Escape from New York.

Passive Aggressive Terrorism

Every time the muzzies blow something or somebody up...

The west begins to 'flinch' every time muzzies do anything
even remotely suspicious..for quite a while thereafter.

So they get to go around doing odd things to make themselves
look suspicious and many times the flinching costs US or Western tax payers beau coup bucks

They ground aircraft..get planes to return to their airport of origin...cause traffic snarl ups...shut down train stations, bus stations etc etc etc...

They don't do anything they will be arrested for but just
enough to get a response of some sort..

Sometimes it's a response that causes many man hours of police or fire or emergency services...or just inconveniences a lot of people..either way it causes fear..and fear over the long haul is demoralizing..

This is a psy op on their part..

imo

Utter hogwash

Right!  How many of these "innocent" digressions will it take before our "intelligence" experts put two and two together and realize they are probing us for weaknesses, right out in the open!

Yumpin Yemeni! I'm sure it was just an innocent float and they were only armed with cameras.

They were just rafting."

Right.

Rafting, just like the Yemenis who rafted up along side The Cole and blew that great big hole in the side were just out for a joy ride.

I hope the NYPD rafts these guys up the Hudson River to Sing Sing Prison and lets them float around in the General Population...for a while.

2. We can try to get the government to evacuate the enemy, legally kick these people out, detain them, or take them out, and also not let them in in the first place.

That should read....

2. The Government prevents any illegal from entering the United States. Seal the borders. At the same time we detain, then "export" any and all Muslim / Islamic affiliated. Period.

The ones in this country don't seem overly dismayed when the extremists strike. Ok, you need to find a different country.

Anyone of their ilk that so much even hints at anything the extremists do is a good thing....Club Gitmo-A, Alaska (they are desert folk - send them somewhere cold).

Time to stop the foolishness and get serious.

Thanks! I love to fish and it shows through in everything I do. I'm so glad others in this world can share in the thrill as much as I do. Maybe the world would be a little more peaceful if we all just took the time to do a little fishin' like these fellows.
