Christmas terror suspect says '20 more in training'
NY Post ^ | January 8, 2010 | AP

A young Nigerian charged with trying to blow up a US airliner boasted during his interrogation that some 20 others were being trained to carry out similar attacks, CBS reported on Friday.

British intelligence officials said Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, 23, had "boasted that close to 20 other young Muslim men were being prepared in Yemen to use the same technique to blow up airliners," AFP reported from a CBS report.

Abdulmutallab earlier pleaded not guilty to six charges arising out of the botched Christmas Day bombing of Northwest Flight 253 from Amsterdam to Detroit.

A misstatement. He refused to enter a plea. The not guilty was entered by the Judge.

I have to wonder what the outcome of all this would have been had the passengers killed this guy. Would they be standing trial? Would CAIR have come out calling for their prosecution?

“20 other young Muslim men “

Are we ready to start profiling yet or have we not seen enough bodies from planes?

In a normal world, no. In an Obamanation, probably would be tried for 1st degree murder and hate crimes...... Choking a few of these scum to death while they are in pursuit of their Jihad might be the single best way to send a message to the lot of them, though....

i was thinking exactly that myself. “Wheres the perp?” Hold out your hand,”theres a piece of him wedged in my fingernail. A chunk under that seat. Gee officer,looks like there are parts of him all over the plane.”

Further, we really have no idea what he said after he was doused with the fire extinguisher and dragged off the plane.

Passenger descriptions were that he appeared in a trance like state.

I believe NOTHING coming from anyone but the eyewitnesses to his attempt to blow up the plane.

Everything else is pure bull. JMO

Personally, the thought of bullet holes in a plane at 20,000 ft. doesn’t cheer me one bit.

Thats why i went into detail about tearing the terrorist apart. I’m pretty sure no mention of guns.

It appears to me that the Obamalamadingdong Administration, much like the Clintoon Administration with TWA800, isn't telling us everything that happened. Some of the stuff that has been released, though, like the issue with the 'perp's visa, probably shouldn't have been released.

Personally, the thought of bullet holes in a plane at 20,000 ft. doesn’t cheer me one bit.

Systems are double or triple redundant on most airliners. Cabin pressure would be maintained well at 20,000' with a few bullet holes in the skin. Any future Muzzie 'perps should be far more worried about being torn limb from limb, as opposed to being shot.....

Yep. If I ever get a chance to lay my hands on one of these dirtbags, I know what to do.

I'll do my damnest to keep them from Obama's apologist show trials.

And...., coming soon to a shopping center near you... Muslim suicide bombers, walking in off the streets [do you see any scanners in shopping centers??]

Look for more terrorist attacks in the months and years to come. It's not over by a long shot.

That is my biggest fear. We have many "soft" targets for these bass turds to choose from.
