Investigators combed through Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab's history Sunday in hopes of learning how the British-educated son of a Nigerian bank executive ended up carrying what authorities said was a bomb onto a Michigan-bound jetliner.

Abdulmutallab was released from a hospital in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on Sunday after being treated for burns, according to Gina Balaya, a spokeswoman for the U.S. attorney's office in Detroit, Michigan. The 23-year-old is charged with attempting to set off an explosive device aboard a Northwest Airlines flight from the Netherlands shortly before its landing in Detroit on Christmas Day, and was being held in an undisclosed location, Balaya told CNN.

Other reports indicate this undisclosed location is a federal prison in Milan, about 30 miles west of Detroit.

Perhaps he can do some indoctrinating there on the peaceful religion of Islam ...

Hundreds of people were informed BEFORE THE FACT.

There will either be accountability (and removal
of those clowns in charge) or the consequences
seem quite serious.

Not much has been funny lately, but your comment emitted a bitter laugh from me, LOL.

The terrorist should not be given a White House appointment as the Commissar du Jour.

Ve haf vays of making him talk, but the Obamaloons won’t use such things in fear of offending our president’s faith. (Did he bring his prayer rug to Hawaii?)

Hundreds of people were informed BEFORE THE FACT.

Is the Jamie Gorelick-like wall of separation ignorance, incompetence, indifference or the machinations of an elitist enemy within that can benefit whether the attack takes place or not...because..."you never want a serious crisis to go to waste"?

Thanks for the reminders, Diogenesis.

"If we pulled his visa or banned him from flying, that would have alerted him you are onto him," the official said. "Whereas in some cases if you have a terror lead, you watch to see what happens when he travels, which could be more valuable." In addition, the official said, it was "fairly early in the process of what kind of threat this guy poses."

I'm not sure I have anything to add to that.

They totally dropped the ball on this guy. He would have been grabbed in Amsterdam if they had been doing their job. It doesn’t give me much confidence in our gatekeepers. Notice how this doesn’t happen on flights to/from Israel. They have very tight security,this mutt would have been busted BEFORE he got on the plane.

It's right there in these news photos: CHANGE has come to America.

That's cute. How come there was no one official present on the plane? If the terrorist didn't have a passport why was he still allowed to fly? Would not giving him one have disclosed that "they" are on to him? Doesn't make sense.

They are just doing a CYA because they messed up BIG time.

Most likely to have a beer with Barry and a little dialogue on what went wrong.

A vacation...and a pardon/s;)
