Greyhound Attack May Be Connected to Sept.11 Terrorism |
(IsraelNationalNews.com) According to Congressman (D-Tenn) Bob Clement, investigators may not be too quick to discard a connection between the Sept. 11th terrorist attacks in the US and this weeks slashing attack on board a Greyhound bus in middle Tennessee that claimed at least six lives. It has now been learned that the attack who slit the throat of the bus driver, causing it to veer out of control and flip several times, carried a Croatian passport. FBI investigators are not releasing his name, now suspecting there may be a link to arch terrorist Osama bin-Laden and not just the work of a lone deranged man. On Tuesday night, the FBI tracked down a bin-Laden associate, Zafer al-Atasi, in Nashville. The Saudi Arabian national was living in Nashville up until several months before the Greyhound attack. |
Have never heard of this particular website before. Poking around, it's not obviously loony-toons but pretty clearly is very much a pro-Israeli site. Not that there's anything wrong with that..just that it may turn out not to be the most dispassionate unbiased source in the world.
I was complimenting you for being the only person even raising the slightest questions about the source, and sarcastically mocking those who believe everything posted on any website in the world......
The fact that people died in this tragedy is terrible, but it could just be a disinformation ploy to distract us from the real game.
Was it the same M.O. of cutting the throat with a box cutter and steering the vehicle into fiery death that gave it away ?
Sheesh - nothing to see here folks.
1. A congresman says terrorism should not be ruled out--well duh
2. Attacker had a croation passport---we knew this day one
3. FBI not releasing the attackers name--ok, do they even know it for sure ?
4. On Tuesday night, the FBI tracked down a bin-Laden associate, Zafer al-Atasi, in Nashville---Ok, but how is the associate related to the attacker ??
I am unable to find any quotes from Clement other than ones from Oct. 3, immediately after the accident, that it "looked very suspicious."Would not surprise me if that mutated into what this Israel News site posted. One thing that's a bit suspicious about the article at the beginning of this thread is that they say that he had a Croatian passport like it was some amazing new breaking revelation...and it's rather old news.

The photo was released Thursday, Sept. 4 by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. The FBI has identified Igric as the assailant who slashed the neck of bus driver Garfield Sands, causing the bus to crash and killing six people, including Igric.

Heck, he kinda looks like ME.
You should do something about that large circle on your head.
