ATLANTA — Friends say a Georgia Tech graduate student is in critical condition after an apartment fire off 10th Street in midtown.

Atlanta police told Channel 2’s Erica Byfield that Saamar Akhshabi was burned from an incendiary device in the incident.

WSBTV.com reported the explosion as breaking news Tuesday just after 8:30 p.m. When investigators arrived on scene they found the international student with severe burns to his hands, arms and chest.

This has been under the radar as far as I know. I heard about it locally this morning, but haven't seen a thread here or anything on Drudge. Word should get out about this -- being lulled back into complacency will be the death of us.

Hands - arms - face — hmm, was he bending over, making an incendiary device? Job hazards in that occupation. What was that joke - “How’s your son?” “They blow up so early.” haha

Molotov cocktails filled with gasoline and kerosene...I'm sure there's a perfectly innocent explanation.



Or not.

You mean someone put all those Molotov cocktails in his room?

Someone should report this as a hate crime.

Another mus-lame male in his early 20s? Yep, just keep letting them in the country, what the hell. Meanwhile in New York where I unfortunately live, we have a governor who says he doesn’t want conservatives in HIS state “We don’t want you here” yet I see mus-lame males in their 20s walking all over the place.

The NSA will never catch these terrorist cells no matter how many phone calls and email messages they collect. These bastards know how to keep it off the grid. The idiot government is always fighting the previous war.

Authorities said he had third-degree burns on 90 percent of his body.

Are they sure? Maybe they should throw some salt on him as a test.

FYI - the GA Joint Terrorism Task Force was on the scene and in charge of the scene within minutes.

Even the reporters were asking why they were there AND why they were there so fast.

That was on our local ABC news last night and this AM.

Seems he’s finding out what his intended victims would have gone through.

If we don’t let mudslimes in, how are we going to justify getting involved in mudslime wars everywhere else by claiming we face a threat?
