Federal agents arrested a Saudi Arabian traveler who arrived at Detroit Metropolitan Airport with a pressure cooker, a key component used in the Boston Marathon bombings last month.

Hussain Al Kwawahir will be arraigned at 1 p.m. in federal court for allegedly using an altered passport and lying to a Customs and Border Protection Agent about the pressure cooker.

Figures DETROIT was the destination......that place is full of them!

Best explanation yet of why Detroit now gives a great impression of a broken down third world country!

Why test? They know the TSA can’t find a bomb big enough to put a hole in the plane, which is big enough to bring it down.

Putting it in a pressure cooker only makes it easier for the TSA.

During the baggage exam, officers found a pressure cooker.

Al Kwawahir said....he brought the pressure cooker for his nephew because the devices are not sold in the United States, according to the complaint.

Later,... he changed his story... and admitted that his nephew had purchased a pressure cooker in the U.S. but it was cheap and broken.”

Having a hard time understanding why someone would travel with any cookware!

Thinking this was purposely set up.

I used my pressure cooker this weekend to can 8 jars of green beans. I expect to be visited by Big Sis this week.

Their runners and go to boys rarely have much grey matter between the ears.....they are most assuredly primmed to what they should say...regardless how stupid it might sound. They know the US will provide a defense....at tax payers expense....more than likely “soft jihad” to just keep draining the country...and laugh while our leaders continue to refuse to name the enemy and that we are at war on our own soil.

It was his training pressure cooker-probably comes with a textbook ;)

Very strange story-but maybe this is so they can inconvenience airline passengers on Memorial Day weekend—ya know-to keep us all “safe”.

<...” the large population of moslems in the area”...>

It’s called “setting up camp”...as in war.

It’s good thing the TSA wasn’t around when my grandfather was flying. He once brought a frozen turkey with him on a flight for Thanksgiving..as if the stores around me wouldn’t have any or some such thing..he laughed about the rest of his life.

My take is he WANTED to be arrested. So he could claim Islamophobia and lessen our defenses for later real efforts.

Nothing to see here, just some long wolf. Run along now - nobody was hurt, maimed, or killed. AND you dare not bring up his cultural heritage or you are RACIST. PC really has destroyed this country just like putting a knife in the heart. As many times as I read through the 47 goals of Communism for the takeover of America, I never once saw Political Correctness but it sure has been a potent weapon in our demise.
