when the phony bombs the Federal Bureau of Investigations provided to him to detonate failed to go off.It is nice that the Fed has changed their policy on providing real bombs to people after the "McVeigh incident".

...the arrest of a Jordanian living in Italy, Texas. Somewhere in Texas a newspaper needs a better editor.

STILL no word on how this puke got into the country.
Well there is word it’s just a matter of if the word is accurate.
From the American Statesman:
http://www.statesman.com/news/content/news/stories/local/2009/10/05/1005bombplot.html
snip....
Maher Hussein Smadi said his son entered the U.S. with a student visa. But U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials said Smadi came to the United States legally in 2007 using a tourist visa and overstayed the time he was allowed to be in the country.
A student visa would have made Smadi easier to track since a program was established after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks to monitor educational visitors. Such a system doesn’t exist for tourists. ......
Federal immigration officials would not say what aspects of Smadi’s case the agency might be investigating, but it’s likely to be looking at how Smadi got a job and who hired him because a tourist visa doesn’t entitle a person to work in the United States.
Mohamad Alhalwani, who operated the business where Smadi worked in Texas, said the manager who hired the young man looked over his documents and saw he had legal status to work.
“We do not hire anybody illegally,” Alhalwani said.

In that area I’d expect he got “papers” from the same folks who forge them for the Mejicans.

He is no different than those who come here from MANY other countries illegally. They all get fake ID cards to work. Then, we ask no questions and let them into our homes to clean, mow the lawn and paint, etc. all the while we eat large quantities of food and get fat.
And, our Congress wants to make them legal so they can destroy us so the USA will look like other hell holes of this world. Congress officials can be in their own little compounds across the nation protected by taxpayers.

Still, this is why Obummer shut up about the Patriot Act...he now knows that any new “event” will be on HIS watch, and HIS responsibility.

We do not hire anybody illegally, Alhalwani said.Just thought that needed posting again. Yep, I was right about the expired student visa (or tourist or whatever). Interesting about the feds not checking on the tourist visas so those are the preferred documents now days. Geez, why not just give them all a welcome to America bomb building kit when they get off the plane (or sneak across the wide open border) for all the good our security is doing. Someone needs to check out the owner and employees of that Shell station.

I have a bad feeling about this surge of plots being discovered. After such a long time of feeling secure within our borders, (Thanks Mr. Bush), I now feel we have a big target on our backs. They are bound and determined to test Obama. Its not a matter of IF, its only a matter of When one of these plots reach execution level.
