Sharp dressed man and flight 253: what was left out of the story? (MSM sheltering Obama?)
Examiner ^ | Robert Rule

Posted on 12/30/2009 12:50:02 PM PST by Kells

You’ve heard by now the Haskell story right? In case you haven’t let’s start there. Kurt Haskell is an attorney. He and his wife were in Amsterdam that day after a safari and Kurt witnessed the underwear bomber (Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab) before the flight being aided by what Haskell described to be an older Indian gentleman who was well dressed.

[...] Mr. Haskell recalled that just before being questioned about the sharp dressed man incident a man was pulled into a room, handcuffed, and detained by authorities. Who was he? Why was he detained? Is there any relevance to the story?

Haskell described the man as being a much younger Indian man. After the incident authorities asked the passengers to move to another location. Obviously it was a big deal. Surely the larger media outlets could find out who this man was and what he was detained for. According to Haskell the authorities then told the passengers that obviously they had a problem. The passengers were then told they could figure out what was going on but nothing more. Something doesn’t smell right and it’s not the underwear bomb...

Another passenger who reported on the arrest of the 2nd suspect:

Abdul Akin Sadiku, a Nigerian living in Canada was on the same flight with the terror suspect, Umar Farouk AbdulMutallab, He shared his experience with NEXT in an interview from his Canada base. Excerpts:

Then they brought a dog to sniff peoples’ bags. It did, and they later took away one guy whose bag was repeatedly sniffed by the dog. They handcuffed him and we don’t know what happened to him anymore.

I think we can expect foreign media to actually report more of the objective facts that the US lamestream media. They are so far in the bag for Obama, they have no way of ever finding their way out.

Indeed. I wonder if Fox News will pickup the second arrest story? Expect WP and the Slimes to bury to bury it.

More coverup in action from Friends of Obama:

CNN has since DELETED the Dutch terrorism minister’s reference to the crotch bomber’s Italian passport from this story.

The Italian passport reference still appears at:

Times Online

Sky News

Perhaps Amsterdam Airport will release the airport video of the “well dressed man.”

The section deleted by CNN from their previous article:

Dutch to use full body scans for U.S. flight (AbdulMutallab used Italian passport?)

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2417669/posts

AbdulMutallab was traveling on an Italian passport, Akerboom said, without elaborating.

IMHO, the second guy probably had drugs on him, after all it was a flight from Amsterdam, when the incident happened and they brought in the dogs he was busted as well, illegal yes related to the other incident, maybe not...

So the "well dressed man" must have procured an Italian passport for the bomber. I wonder if Obama will release the Italian passport to the media?

I have flown through Amsterdam on NW a few times and I don’t remember having to show my passport to anyone. I had a boarding pass from the origin airport....

It appears that Obama has ordered CNN to srub the reference to the crotch bomber’s Italian passport from their earlier report.

no cover up, remember Richard Jewel, I would sue the police if I was mentioned in the same article as a terrorist and had nothing to do with it.

They probably arrested the second person and gave his passport to the underoo bomber.
