Hmmm, I didn’t know that they had a Tea Party group in Pakistan. Better tell Mayor Bloomberg to round up the usual suspects.

Their whole story is falling apart. First, it was a “white” guy, probably angry over Obamacare. Then it was a U.S. citizen of Pakistani origins who acted alone. He’d just lost his home and probably was upset.

Now that they know there are more people from Pakistan involved, are they ready to call it terrorism yet?

Pakistani media are reporting that Shahzad is from Karachi and spent significant time in Peshawar, the capital of North-West Frontier Province, where the government is waging a fierce war against Taliban militants.

A Pakistani government source, speaking on condition of anonymity, told TIME on Tuesday that the suspect had ties with militants while in Pakistan. “He was here at a training camp,” the source said. The source also claimed that members of Shahzad’s family were arrested in Karachi on Tuesday morning.

In Pakistan, an intelligence official said authorities arrested at least two people in the southern port city of Karachi in connection with the Times Square bombing attempt. The official, who is not authorized to speak on the record, identified one of those arrested as Tausif Ahmed, who was picked up in a busy commercial neighborhood called Gulshan-e-Iqbal. He said Ahmed reportedly traveled two months ago to the United States to meet with Shahzad. The official did not have the other suspect’s name.

Pakistani television stations reported that as many as five other people with links to the alleged plot may have been arrested in the central industrial city of Faisalabad, but those reports could not immediately be confirmed.

Shahzad is from Pabbi, the main town of Nowshera District in northwestern Pakistan, near Peshawar, according to Pakistani Interior Minister Rehman Malik.

A source close to the United Arab Emirates said Shahzad’s name was placed on the U.S. government’s no-fly list around midday Monday but that the suspect was not stopped before he bought a ticket and checked in for Emirates Airlines Flight 202 to Dubai, where he planned to change planes and fly on to Pakistan.

Instead, the airline noted that Shahzad made his reservation on the way to the airport and paid cash for the flight, alerting U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the source said.

“The question is, when did they become aware of his presence at the airport, and when was he put on the list?” the source said, describing a dialogue among the U.S. and UAE governments and the airline over responsibility for Shahzad’s boarding of the aircraft.

Big Red Flag on immigration "reform". The guy becomes a citizen as a cover + Holder will come to his rescue. Start a moratorium on immigration for anyone from the Middle-East? Need a complete conservative review of our immigration laws/policies after Sarah gets in. Forget Amnesty. . . . don't even think about it!

What did this guy do to deserve being called a Terrorist by 0bamao?
I recall FT Hood for instance. Is it because nobody got killed or hurt
that qualifies the label?
