An Islamic terrorist named Faisal Shahzad is the Time Square bomber according to media reports. He is Muslim of Pakistani heritage with dual citizenship in the United States, a registered Democrat in the state of Connecticut who may be an Obama donor. He was recently naturalized as a U.S. citizen under the Obama administrations lenient open door policy.
Shahzad Faisal as identified by NBC News, or Faisal Shahzad as identified by U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, is a U.S. citizen of Pakistani origin. He was arrested at JFK airport in New York trying to flee the country back to Pakistan via a connector flight to Dubai, India on flight UAE 202. He was taken off the airplane sitting on the runway, promptly read his Miranda rights, and presumably went silent.
Obamas policy of treating enemy combatants as common criminals has been much criticized outside of liberal intelligentsia. At least they got their man, but the free lawyers that us taxpayers are giving him will assure very little intelligence is gathered in this case.
The Obama Justice department has caused furor within law enforcement circles for being soft on terror. The method of apprehending this terrorist will simply increase the volume and scrutiny. The public asks why are terrorists getting arrested for criminal prosecution rather than detained and shipped to Guantanamo for military tribunals. Despite bad PR generated by liberal college professors and their allies, detaining terrorists in Guantanamo was one of the good ideas by the Bush Administration for U.S. security interests.
Faisal Shahzad was naturalized April 17th 2009, one of the early beneficiary of Obamas liberal immigration policy that threw open the borders to treat all countries of origin alike. Two months later he was back in Pakistan, presumably meeting and plotting with terrorist allies there.
The slow motion war by Islamic fundamentalists marches on, unrecognized by the American political establishment, either through gross incompetence or pacification of radical voting groups for political expediency. Our leaders seem deaf and dumb to the threat against American interests and freedom.
Faisal Shahzad is a typical example if the charges are true, one of many who have attempted to cause terror among the populace, by lighting shoe bombs, underwear bombs, or blowing up cars in crowded urban centers. The current administration seems largely indifferent to the threat.
Faisal Shahzad had apparently been placed on the do-not-fly list earlier in the day, so a match was made against his passport when he tried to board an international airplane flight. This is a good win for the department of homeland security. Well leave the incompetence at preventing the attack for others to analyze.
Leads were easy in this case. A naive attempt was made to cover up the vehicle identification number on the Nissan Pathfinder loaded with explosives, by removing it from the inside door panel, but the number was left on the engine block. In addition, the purchase was made via CraigsList which left an electronic trail.
This is clearly a developing story for which more information will be forthcoming. We are still researching to understand if Faisal Shahzad was an Obama campaign donor. The Muslim community in the U.S. overwhelmingly supported the presidents 2008 election run. Stay tuned.
If I had to guess 25 cents, this would be exactly that. Homegrown, or maybe a mentally deranged person, or somebody with a political agenda that doesnt like the health care bill or something. It could be anything, he said.]
I hope to God that Rush puts together one of his audio montages of statements like this from our elected 'leaders' and media intelligentsia. This episode may serve to (further) expose left-wing comtempt for honest, freedom-loving Americans.
Never let a crisis go to waste.

My guess is that they had him in close watch and wanted to give him every opportunity to use his cell phone before take off.
My second guess is that they wanted to see if he made any verbal or physical contact with any other passengers.
I'd like to know if anyone else was taken off the plane.
Obama has already stated that he wants more legal immigrants from Muslim countries. Worrying about illegal Mexican lowlifes is going to look like the good old days once our cities fill up with legal Muslims (Africans, SE Asians and Middle Easterners).
I have been in Muslim areas in European cities, and they're unbelievably squalid and filthy and menacing. And on top of that, Muslim "immigrants" want to kill the native populations and take over their countries, and what we're seeing with this guy will soon become a common thing here.
What’s the point of this really big foto?
And, according to the article he is:
....a registered Democrat in the state of Connecticut who may be an Obama donor.
Which rock did you crawl out from under? You allow the leftards to characterize all conservative Christians as anti-semitic bigots, like yourself.
Probably sitting in the same row.

It’s now a common refrain at Checkers Food Stores on North Colony Street in Wallingford.
“Everybody is so mad, and say, ‘This is my last pack,’ “ manager Faisal Shahzad said. “Then they come back and complain about the government.”

Yes, inflitrated to the hilt!
I applied for my Passport Global Entry pass and went through an interview with an Homeland Security agent in the Miami airport a few months ago. During my interview process, I commented on the $hitty border situation (both Canada and Mexico). His reply to me was that the bad guys were already on our soil.........

I am guessing they’d like him on the plane rather than trying to escape in the airport. Once he’s on the plane he’s been pretty much trapped for them to come in and nab.
When exactly will an apology come from the media to all white men?
Some of the hundreds of so called fair news reports:
Times Square: Police look for white man taped near bomb scene
http://www.ndtv.com/news/world/times-square-police-look-for-white-man-taped-near-bomb-scene-22638.php
So far, the police investigation focused on finding a white man in his 40s recorded by a security camera at the car stopped the suspect, taking off his shirt and looking around, said Barbara Celis. However, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and NBC acknowledged being a little hasty to draw this man, since Times Square for millions of people pass daily.

Law enforcement officials offered a more detailed description of the makeup of the failed car bomb found in Times Square on Saturday night, and said they were reviewing surveillance footage that showed a white man who appeared to be in his 40s walking away from the area as he looked over his shoulder and removed a layer of clothing.

When he tried to board? HE BOARDED!!! He was in his assigned SEAT on the plane.
WTF He was recently naturalized as a U.S. citizen under the Obama administrations lenient open door policy.
Anyone know about this? I thought we were moving to limiting immigration or travel from suspect countries—or is this just an “extreme” Republican position.
