Terror probes - what you’re not being told(Terror dry runs over America)

On August 1, 2001, Hollywood actor James Woods witnessed four men of Middle Eastern appearance engaged in suspicious behavior on a transcontinental flight from Boston to Los Angeles. Mr. Woods’ first public recounting of his observations was five months after 9/11 on The O’Reilly Factor. During that February 15, 2002 broadcast, Mr. Woods stated that the suspicious behavior of the four men “would have been blatantly obvious to the most casual observer.”

Investigation ultimately confirmed that the actor witnessed a “practice run” for the 9/11 hijackings. He ultimately learned that all four men he observed aboard his flight were terrorists who took part in the murderous hijackings on 9/11 – and that they were not all on the same plane during the actual hijackings.

Fast forward to Christmas Day 2009, when Islamic terrorist Umar Farouk Abdul-Mutallab carried PETN onto Delta-Northwest flight 253 and attempted to detonate the explosive package using a catalyst in a syringe. As some “assembly” was required, Abdul-Mutallab used the lavatory prior to his attempt at mass murder. Note carefully witness accounts glossed over by the media, downplayed or denied by officials, such as a second person allegedly taken into custody while another aboard the aircraft reportedly took video.

Intelligence analysis confirmed that Islamic terrorists always use such practice runs, often dubbed “dry runs” or probes to assess operational logistics and various aspects of airline security. Knowing that and having better hindsight after 9/11, why haven’t we seen media reports, DHS, FBI or TSA acknowledgement of such probes prior to the Christmas Day bombing attempt? Was there a practice run for flight 253? What about the second person reportedly arrested, and reports of a bomb sniffing dog hitting on luggage in the possession of a man a witness described as a 30 year-old male, possibly from India....

This article was sent out today by NAFBPO. Many of you will remember the incident with James Woods. He is a very interesting man..IQ of 160, well spoken, conservative, doesn't suffer fools. He would make an interesting candidate. His talents could be more useful than in Hollywood.

FYI

HILLARY CLINTON’S AGENCY ISSUED THE TERRORIST’S VISA
by Michael Cutler

I have noted several times that the State Dept. is responsible for issuing many of the BAD visas who turn out to be jihadists or criminals. Remember this number is above those issued by USCIS. All in all, we must be issuing a couple million visas every year.(over 4 million are overstays and will be eligible for AMNESTY)

Ironic that Woods usually plays the bad guy in his movies.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Or was #253 a dry run itself? Why else would somebody in the cabin be filming the perp?

[Carley]

Who will volunteer for the next dry run, given the crotch on fire result.

IMHO this does not qualify for a dry run.

[PghBaldy]

I’ve wondered that too.

“Ironic that Woods usually plays the bad guy in his movies.”

Maybe that’s what we need...a BAD guy...instead of the squishy PC types we’re saddled with.

Did you see him portray Bill Wilson in “In My Name Is Bill W.”?
Excellent. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097939/

IF it was, what did they learn?

American's remember 9/11 and won't hesitate to take action in the sky. Even though we are not bombarded with constant 9/11 reminders, hate filled speeches against islam, or even being trained to respond...we will rise, stand, and stop any attempts if we find we're in the position of last defense.

Now if we could just get the rest of the government to be that responsive..

Obama continues to belive that by not profiling the Jihadi’s will suddenly come to their senses and love us for the compassionate and nonjudgmental society that liberals pretend to be part of. The truth is the Jihadi’s are laughing as they make their plans and arm their bombs.

*ping*

“The truth is the Jihadi’s are laughing as they make their plans and arm their bombs.”

Agreed, Spok. They must thing we are the dumbest people around...easy pickings.

[Mmogamer]

Well they learned one way not to try to detonate the PETN stuff.

[K-oneTexas]

Quite and interesting article, I enjoyed reading it.

All people are observers, whether they realize it or not. Many see so much and then just don’t remember it.

The title (”what you’re not being told”) made me think. Would it make anyone feel safer to know how many terrorist activities were thwarted by DHS/FBI/etc within our borders?

If you see them all you would have so much information not only on the types of attacks but also the single mindset of this adversary to destroy our lives.

Would that make one feels safer or more vulnerable.

I support and thank the men and women on the front lines of this war, wherever they may be.

Notice the passengers who told of the entire flight being videotaped.....no word the video taper was detained.

and the recent provocations on 2 other airlines by teams of crazy acting muslim men also involved videotaping the passengers

I guess the muslim community is looking for air marshals so they can refine their final plans?

[New Yawk Minute]

Israel profiles..because they have working brains.

Who said recently ( Rep King, maybe), if they are investigating the mafia..who do they look at?

I dont see them checking out the black people.

They need to stop looking at grandmas and babies, and take a look at those who LOOK like terrorists. Period.

In my opinion, none of THEM should be allowed on planes. And then, we should see who are riding trains.

Whats wrong with this country today? Didnt we “round up” certain people during WWII? Thats what you do, if you care about the safety of your citizens.

Until they begin to think reasonably..I wouldnt even consider getting on a plane.

[mazda77]

It does if the detonation was designed not to work and they wanted to know the reaction of the crew and passengers during the process. The dupe could very well have been Umar in this case because everything about him should have set off alarms from the time his ticket was purchased.

[Malsua]

Had things happened differently above Detroit on Christmas Day, it is likely that government officials, the media and others would be lamenting the continued problems associated with center fuel tank explosions, citing TWA Flight 800 as the last example.

I said this from moment one. Two hours after the plane hits the deck We'd have been fed a line of bullsqueeze that it was a heretofore unknown problem with the fuel tank and there is no indication of terror.

[Tzfat]

Or was #253 a dry run itself? Why else would somebody in the cabin be filming the perp?

I agree, and the FBI knows it. AQ like coordinated attacks - not single ones. I suspect the PETN, or the initiator was purposely compromised by the Nigerian's handlers. He likely did not know there was another terrorist on board with him, watching and videoing everything.

***Obama continues to belive that by not profiling the Jihadi’s will suddenly come to their senses and love us for the compassionate and nonjudgmental society that liberals pretend to be part of.***

You’re too kind. He just plain doesn’t care.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

That’s an excellent thought — that they intentionally compromised the initiator and the poor schlub was left hanging. They knew that Obama’s new policies would get him lawyered up in no time so he wouldn’t have to spill his guts, either. It could be a test to see if we would accord him US Constitutional rights rather than get him to GITMO for interrogation. In which case, the US has failed with flying colors yet again. But Obama will declare that we are “true to our principals of Constitutional protections and presumption of innocence.”

Just think of the intel we could have gotten if he was interrogated. This is criminal malfeasance by the government — worse than the criminal act on the aircraft.
