	1-5-01 Kid didn't know it was '02 yet. I have prepared this statement in regards to the act I am about to commit. First of all, Osama bin Laden is absolutely justified in the terror he has caused on 9-11. He has brought a mighty nation to its knees! God blesses him and the others who helped make September 11th happen. The U.S. will have to face the consequences for its horrific actions against the Palestinian people and (illegible, could be Iraq?) by its allegiance with the monstrous Israelis who want nothing short of world domination! You will pay - God help you - and I will make you pay!
Tampa, Fla., Police Dept. officials released the two page note found on the body of Charles Bishop after he crashed a Cessna 172 R plane into the Bank of America Building Jan. 5, 2002 in Tampa. The note states Bishop sympathized with Osama Bin Laden. (AP Photo/ho)

And the "plan" to nuke the Super Bowl on page 2 of his note is the exact plot of Tom Clancy's The Sum of All Fears.

Except that in Clancy's book the lost Israeli nuke was from the '73 war. I don't think that Israel had assembled a bomb in time for the 1967 war, as Beshara/Bishop claims. IIRC theirs was completed around 1970.

Alamo-Girl ... where are you?

[lucysmom]

Thank you for saying that! As long as we blame liberals for everything - what will change?

[hellinahandcart]

And to think his mom and grandmother made a statement that they didn't consider the note a 'suicide' note.

And he was very patriotic too, don't forget that. (eye roll)

Yeah, that may be, but it still wouldn't get past the nuns......

Thanks for posting this!

Okay, all of you mentally sick/disturbed idiots who defended this piece of trash back in January! It is time to come out and make even bigger idiots out of yourselves!

Thank you old man Darwin for thinning out some of the scum in the shallow end of the gene pool. Hopefully, this lover of mass murderers didn't father any scum!

Save your children. Abolish public education.

Think about this ... the kid liked to hang around airports (small airports). Is it possible that at one of those air strips somewhere in Florida that Charles Bishop did in fact meet Atta and Friends who were also known to frequent air strips.

Very logical conclusion. This kid wrote down some pretty sophisticated, radical thoughts for a 14 year old. Seems like he may have read "the manual"

Why? Why would a 15 year old think such things?

He really really really needed to get laid. :p

[NC_Libertarian]

Ah, it's clear why they waited untill now to release it! (Superbowl)

his father was an Arab, of the Muslim persuasion. This in itself explains his extreme views.

I'm curious whose idea it was to take flying lessons and who paid for them. Most people I've met who take flying lessons are very optimistic about their future. They way this kids writing slants downward shows he has no ambitions, no rewarding goals. Was his father paying for flying lessons for some ulterior purpose?

[TexKat]

He worked at the flight training school where some of the hijacking suicidal receiving 72 virgins wanna be martyrs attended.

[TexKat]

He meet them at the flight training school where he worked and they were students.

I thought this from the very first, when he flew the plane into the building.

There are a couple of strange gaps where it looks like words might have been omitted.

[let freedom sing]

His handwriting style...

The handwriting slants down-- revealling a depressed personality. Numerous cross-outs show this was a rough draft-- he did not consider himself a terrorist, so he crossed that out. He wants his blessings now, not "later"-- crossed out, he denies God's judgment of evil. The part about meeting with Al-Queda is a winsom stretch of the immigination-- delusional.

Poor, sick boy.

What would you be saying if that 'poor sick boy' had picked a different day to fly a plane into a building where one of your loved ones works?

15 year old liberal mind - You can see this on display at the DU or bartcop. In the case of many liberals the mind reaches it's pinnacle at 15 and remains stuck there.

I seem to Remember Reading that this Kid was a member of the Young Democrats at his high school. This of course is just typical behavior from Democrats and their ilk.

[TopQuark]

Why? Why would a 15 year old think such things? Ask his mother what they talked about at the dinner table.

One less terrorist to worry about.
