Women at Love Field Acting 'Suspiciously'

Women at Love Field 'acting suspiciously'

Dallas police and federal terrorism officials are investigating two women, both dressed in camouflage pants under their traditional Muslim robes and scarves, who were seen conducting what appeared to be surveillance and acting suspiciously at Dallas Love Field.

One of the women, Kimberly "Asma" Al-Homsi, 42, of Arlington, who is on probation for a 2005 Garland road rage incident involving a fake grenade, is said to have long-range assault rifle and explosives training, according to a Dallas police intelligence bulletin issued March 5.

"I'm a trained sniper and proud of it," Ms. Al-Homsi said in an interview Thursday after first refusing to comment on whether she has any terrorism ties. She then said no.

Police officials said they have no direct evidence the women have ties to terrorism.

On the afternoon of Feb. 25, Ms. Al-Homsi and a friend who could not be reached for comment, Aisha Abdul-Rahman Hamad, 50, of Irving, were spotted at Love Field wearing Muslim robes and camouflage pants and "acting suspiciously," the bulletin states. The surveillance video shows one of the women walking back and forth, apparently pacing off distances.

When confronted, the women told officials they were looking for the Frontiers of Flight museum. They left in a red Honda. Descriptions of the incident and the car were circulated at the airport.

Two days later, the museum executive director was leaving for the evening when he noticed the Honda parked facing the runway. A woman, later identified as Ms. Al-Homsi, was sitting on the hood, looking through binoculars at the airplanes. He told the women the museum was closing, and they left.

Police issued one of them a citation for having no front license plate and failing to change her address on a driver's license.

“”But then she came out so much, it became normal.””

So, um, two fruitcakes or two wannabbee terrorists? What is “normal?”

“Sounds like another ‘flying imam’ incident. Probe defenses and then scream racism when caught.”

How much do you want to bet they’re on the CAIR payroll and will soon be filing “Joe Doe” lawsuits against the individuals who questioned their activities at Love field?

What was Mrs. Al-Homsi’s maiden name, I wonder?

Looks like we have another overzealous American convert woman who fell for a smooth-talking Middle Eastern Lothario.

"the picture is a good example why middle eastern men aren’t the only people to watch"

Which is why TSA spends so much time body searching 80 year old grandmas from Des Moines and missing explosives in boarding tests.

Al-HOMSI was already on the radar of federal authorities and is on the federal "no-fly list" after being involved in an atypical “road-rage” incident. Last December, Al-HOMSI officials said she held up an inert grenade and threatened another driver. When stopped by police, Garland's bomb squad reported they also found ammunition in her car. Al-HOMSI also admitted that she received assault rifle and explosives training "while growing up." Nonetheless, they insist that they are being unfairly "profiled" and are the subjects of the persecution of Muslim women.

"If I didn't have a scarf on my head and it was a simple road rage I would not be on the terrorism watch list." Al HOMSI, who is of Syrian descent, stated: "I hate the U.S. Government" and that she is sympathetic to the Palestinian people.

Investigation conducted by Doug Hagmann, director of the Northeast Intelligence Network found the apparent spokesperson of the duo, Kimberly Al-HOMSI is also known as Kimberly al-SAFWEH, and might have been associated with an address in Tucson, Arizona a few years ago - an address, according to this investigation, that is a mere 6 ½ miles from an address possibly associated with Omar SHAHIN, one of the 6 "flying Imams."

I read that she is Syrian and hates America. We should help her back to Syria.

She obviously suffers from Von Hippel-Lindau disease.
She obviously suffers from Von Hippel-Lindau double-bagger disease.
P.S. I was in the service with Virgil Hatfield, of "feud" fame.

On the other hand, just how Syrian can she be with a name like Kimberly. Just a dimwit that converted perhaps.

You have to wonder just how many Brighter Horizons Academies there are in the US... not to mention the countless accredited, Islamic grade schools nestled quietly in and across America preaching who-knows-what.

Typical psychopath careening off the guardrails on the road of life.

Lets hope she is stopped before some innocents are killed.

I’m not too hopeful of that.

The Burqa definitely has a good purpose here and there. Still, the Moslems do carry it way too far.
