People attending the Boston Marathon were informed that a drill was going on and not to be startled or panicked by large noises.

That has always struck me as ODD! Why would they hold a drill the same day as the marathon --- one of Boston's biggest days when people from all over the US and other countries would be there.

I have only seen one report on this (from the Alabama coach) but I found him to be very credible.

Re: White House visitor logs indicate that Al-harbi had been an overnight guest there more than a half-dozen times.

We really don't have enough proof to know that he was ever at the WH even once. There has been a lot of misleading articles about this WH log.

Only one Alharbi of the 7 Alharbi's on the list has the name AbdulRahman A. Alharbi. In 2009 that Alharbi visited the WH in a group of more than 100 that was listed as a tour [IIRC].

The list is suspicious, IMO, but it needs more investigation to prove anything.

“Only one Alharbi of the 7 Alharbi’s on the list has the name AbdulRahman A. Alharbi. In 2009 that Alharbi visited the WH in a group of more than 100 that was listed as a tour...”

Thank you for the additional information. I try to keep information as accurate as possible.

There isn’t enough proof to know with certainty that he visited the White House. I suspect he did and checked in under a variety of names. I don’t think the variations in names were necessarily anything intentionally deceptive, although I can’t rule that in or out, dropping portions of names seems to be common (ancestral names, tribal origin, nickname). And their certainly could be more than one person, or several persons some of whom visited more than once.

Whether he visited the White House or not, hustling him out of the country is peculiar. He’s a witness at the least.

These posts explain what I think about the names:
