In New Jersey, "ma Salama" is a crude reference to a body part.

Stinky toes? (I'm beginning to worry about some of our NJ FReepers...)

FBI supervisory agent Doug Beldon said Friday night's incident appeared to be isolated and unrelated to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center.

I've been reading the above sentence pretty often lately. Maybe some of the weird incidents lately aren't related, but it's enough to make me wonder.

We need to make a "Unrelated & Isolated Incident" list so we can keep up. They're all blending together.

This is what I was thinking, too. There sure are a lot of weird things going on that are "isolated and unrelated" lately.

They aren't reporting it because the Islamic fifth column sent them a deluge of information, timed to coincide with the fall of the towers, about how "horrible" it would be for Amereicans to start profiling, or blaming Islam. Rueters sure fell for it, with the command to not use the word, "terrorist" on any public releases.

See, these episodes are isolated, nothing to see here, folks. Greyhound buses are safe, don't worry...

When this fails, and the backlash hits, some pi$$ed off Americans are going to remember who fell for it.

"A Sky King is a small aircraft in comparison to a 757. No inflight meal OR movie aboard one these babies"

This certainly would not compare with the damage caused by a 757 will a full fuel load. However, the reason for taking this small plane may not be the same as the larger planes.

All kidding aside -- what would someone want this type of plane for?

Great idea about the list. We should start perhaps on the 10th/11th. Weren't there a couple of Amtrak crashes right around the 11th?

My thoughts exactly. "Isolated and Unrelated" could be a search phrase run against all media reports from 9/11 on in order to add items to the list!!!

As for me? I like my Solama on rye with some brown mustard and provolone.

Boy some people just can't be serious for one minute.
THANK GOODNESS!
LOL

See LeBoutillier's Oct. 5th column on NewsMax regarding these and other "unrelated events."

They could crash it into something that is extremely dangerous if released, such as a nuclear facility, as mentioned above, or something else like a chemical plant.

We need to be thinking what these targets might be and keeping our eyes open. The public at large definitely tends to take things more at face value. If a Freeper sees a middle east looking type taking pictures of a chemical plant, we don't assume that Achmed is just a foreign student taking tourist pictures. I know that I would be making a citizen's arrest on his ass, and he better have more than a boxcutter.

I also think we need to be smart enough to realize that those who "have it in for us" may not be Middle Eastern types -- maybe not so easy to distinguish.

I agree that these planes and such could be crashed into something == particularly if explosives happen to have been brought onboard.

White Sands missle range, Patriot missles, Holloman Air Force base, another AFB in Albuquerque, Los Alamos, Mexican border, Fort Bliss Army base.

Yeah. I should've been more specific. The bulletin about the missing truck was issued from a New Mexico FBI office.

I definitely agree with that; I just used the easy example for brevity. If I see ANYBODY doing anything strange around a chemical plant, it will be checked out (I know that there are many blue-eyed Balkan Muslims). A middle east type would just draw attention sooner - ACLU be damned. Stay safe.
