NEW YORK - Authorities arrested a U.S. citizen in connection with the failed bombing attempt in New York's Times Square as he tried to leave the country, Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday.

Faisal Shahzad, 30, was arrested at 11:45 p.m. ET Monday night by Customs and Border Protection agents as he attempted to board an Emirates airlines flight to Dubai at New York's JFK airport, officials said.

"It is clear that the intent behind this terrorist act was to kill Americans," Holder said.

I’m trying to do the math...If we invade Iraq when Saudis attack, who do we invade when Pakistanis attack?

I don’t think so

Amish or Mennonite is my guess.

Possibly Quaker.

That was purposeful. Why? Because they want to make naturalized citizens look ‘as bad as’ illegal ones so Americans will take an ‘oh well’ approach to amnesty.

Question...Are Holder, and or Obama related in any way to Shazhad?....Sure was an attempt to throw the hounds off on this one.

Find out who the lead dog was on this and elect him/Her President I say.

Why don’t they just send some drone into Mt. Joy and nuke the place?

They just forgot to mention he is a nationalized pakistani. But made sure to emphasis he was a US citizen.

Also that pesky FACT that he has only been a *Nationalized* citizen for ONE year!!!

” an unhappy American” makes him a TEA PARTY MEMBER........ya that’s the spin.

Probably tied to radical Muslim cleric Anwar al Awlaki the friend of Maj. Nidal Hasan who was the Ft. Hood Shooter. Hmm but you canÂ’t call them Islamic Terrorists can you!

“U.S. Citizen”

Guilty of treason. Put him up against a wall, and shoot his jihadi ass.

Naturalized citizen from Pakistan, huh? Imagine if we had a federal government that was actually doing their job instead of focused on controlling every aspect of our daily lives from the toilet we sit on to the car we drive to the job we have and instead focused on its legitimate role in immigration policy?

Imagine if they government had put a moratorium on immigration from muzzie countries. This dick might never have gotten in.

Oh wait, they do immigration, but they seem intent on using it to destroy the middle class in America and when you’re trying to destroy the prevailing culture, sometime bombers get in.

What do you do when the government seems intent on harming the people whenever possible?

I really hate to defend msnbc but you're wrong. From the article:

Shahzad, a naturalized U.S. citizen who was born in Pakistan, was accused of driving a car bomb into Times Square, authorities said.

Wishful but we all know Barry will intervene and pardon him and apologize to Pakistan for everything.
