Tariq, from the country of Ugly.

His name is Abdul Raheem and he is a Muslim. Probably one of bin Laden's zombies.

...blow a hole into the center fuel tank over which he was sitting... He was sitting over the center fuel tank? Sound like TWA 800 was about to happen all over again.
To: relee
He seems might tall for an average Sri Lankan.
First thought- Did UBL get to Paris? 10-14 days is plenty time. I mean they are the same height...his nose is bigger, but some type of surgery mayhaps? I know! Chop a finger off, we'll find out...(calling Mrs. UBL) is this your son?!
To: TheOtherOne
He was...they denied a prior flight to him, so he found another! It is after all -American Airlines- the terrorists seem to have an 'in' with them ya know.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Reid had conversed with a crew member in Arabic
Now this on American Airlines, surprise...I'd love to know the register for crew members, since these a-holes seem to always have access to AA. Have they investigated their own employees yet?!
To: cardinal4
He also looks beat up. I bet he got an @$$ kicking on the plane.
To: hogwaller
Tamils are known to carry cyanide; if the mission fails and they are captured, they're supposed to kill themselves, as dead men tell no tales.

Sri Lankan, Yemen, Aghani, Pali....it doesn't matter where they live or their Nationality. it is the agenda they are following. Terrorists are terrorsits no matter how you dress them or what language they speak or their origin/residence.How true.
Here's a happy thought from Middle East expert Daniel Pipes:
Islamists constitute a small but significant minority of Muslims, perhaps 10 to 15 per cent of the
population. Many of them are peaceable in appearance, but they all must be considered
potential killers.
How does 400,000 to 600,000 -- in our country -- potential killers sound?

And yesterday he was called "not middle-eastern." And today it was confirmed. Sri Lanka is not in the middle east.

No way does this have anything to do with Sri Lanka issues or rebels, other than incidental. Think about it, why would a LTTE suicide bomber take down an AA flight from Paris-Miami? Suspicion would focus on Arab terrorism, and no publicity for Sri Lanka issues. Unless we hear of it in the next day or so, he left no explanation note, his passenger list name is English, all evidence at the bottom of the ocean. Who associates American Airlines, Paris-Miami, or even the US with Sri Lanka issues? So why bother?
He's got a Muslim connection, no doubt about it.
To: cardinal4
He doesn't look scary as much as he looks expendable. I think we just nabbed our first jumbojet downing mule. What a bunch of sick f's.
Ok he looks a little scary. Decendant of a character in an Edgar Allen Poe short story?
To: FITZ
"I am shocked that this guy, with the way he looks, heightened suspicions and everything that he was not immediately suspected and inspected."
looks like typical Frog Eurotrash to me.
To: kinghorse
"I am shocked that this guy, with the way he looks, heightened suspicions and everything that he was not immediately suspected and inspected." It was reported on Fox this morning that the French pulled him out of line the day earlier for questioning. He was released and missed his flight. So the French questioned him but did not run a check on his passport? Where is the computer power when we need it. Today it is reported that the US provided the information on his ID. Lets share shall we?

Trace this offal back to his home village and bomb the living f out of it. If "they" are raising this trash "they" need to be punished. What else can you do to dissuade these attacks?
To: kinghorse
Trace this offal back to his home village and bomb the living f out of it. This would only be a start, but it is a start. It has been mentioned that he be questioned. Another start. And lastly for the airlines, "You still want us to fly, you morons."
