“Arrested Americans show no remorse about their terror plans”
PTI Monday, December 21, 2009 14:44 IST
SNIPPET: “Lahore: Five American Muslim youth arrested by Pakistani authorities on suspicion of terror links have shown no remorse about their plans to commit terrorist acts and one has even said they should be hanged so that they could become martyrs, a senior police official said today.”
SNIPPET: “Zamzam, Waqar Hussain Khan, 22, Ahmed Abdullah Minni, 20, Iman Hasan Yemer, 17 and Omar Farooq, 24, were arrested in Sargodha, located 200km from Islamabad, on charges of planning terror attacks in Pakistan and abroad.”
SNIPPET: “On arriving in Pakistan, the youths contacted the militant groups Jamaat-ud-Dawah and Jaish-e-Mohammed but were turned away by both.
Anwar said they were so “desperate to wage holy war” that they decided to form their own group to “sacrifice their lives for Islam”.
“The boys told us that they came to Pakistan after an Al Qaida operative named Saifullah, which is probably a code name, assured them through emails that he would help them in achieving their plans. They got upset when they lost contact with Saifullah after reaching Pakistan and sought help from other militant groups,” he said.
Anwar said a FBI team had returned to the US after interrogating the youths and it was probably investigating “other students or their friends in their hometown of Alexandria in Virginia”.”

I agree with the guy who wants to become a martyr. Shoot them and be done with them.
Remorse? Their Pres_ _ent is in the White House.
Don't you have to accomplish something before being welcomed into that fraternity?
They are NOT Americans.
I don't care how cheap their gas is, there's a reason I have avoided 7/11 for years.
one has even said they should be hanged so that they could become martyrs.
Please do not disappoint them.
Thanks, Cindy. I hope Pakistan exercised the full measure of their interrogation techniques on them.
The Ace Hardware around the corner from us is running a special on rope and pork rinds...
I’m feeling the Christmas spirit now more than ever...
I think we can accomodate that...
Shhhhhhh, thats the big “HAHAHAHAHAHA” at the end of the day...
Just to see the expressions on their faces at the moment the noose is tightened around the neck...
“Oh, by the way...Did you know...”
Yes and so did the Japanese back in the day. Kamikaze anyone. Divine Wind. That is one of the reasons that Truman was convinced to use the A-Bomb. It may come to that again I am afraid.
Indeed. They may have United States citizenship but that does not make them AMERICAN. There are some in our U.S. Congress that I feel the same way about.
BTTT
Agreed. I don’t know why our glorious ICE people can be so effecient about tracking down some 90 year old Nazi, but can’t seem to restrain themselves in issuing citizenship papers for the modern day version.
Thank you for the bump Jet Jaguar.
