She also questioned whether Fares is being treated differently because of ties to the Middle-East.

Yes, he is. Does anyone here have a problem with that? This whole thing will be a crapshoot in liberal Memphis. They may just get a severe attack of political correctness and cut these guys loose. Is there any doubt that these guys are members of a terror cell? What does a law abiding citizen or visitor to this country come all the way to Tennessee to get a fake driver's liscence for? One of these guys had a receipt on him showing that he had been inside the WTC on 9/5/01. He then left NYC on 9-11 and drove to Memphis. Yeah, he's being treated differently. Again I ask, does anyone have a problem with that?

Nash also testified that investigators found evidence of some kind of accelerant in the burned-out interior of Smith's car.

There should be a law against driving with an open accelerant in the car.

Six unnamed witnesses - all related to each other - saw Smith's 1992 Acura Legend veer off U.S. 72 around 12:45 a.m. Sunday. They said the interior of the car was on fire as the car drove across a ditch and hit a utility pole.

This is a little vague.....what did they see that isn't being told......how did they only see the car on fire going down the road and not the people who set the fire then put the car in gear with the accelarator depressed?.....this car did not travel far from the point of ignition....

I know, reading that makes you want to shake your head in disbelief.

What a motley crew... and surprisingly enough not a 17 year old asian, soccer mom or 86 year old medal of honor winning ex-fighter pilot among 'em.

From the photo cutline from the C-A story pic:

Khaled "Kal Odtllah, 31. Came to the United states from Jurusalem 13 years ago. Lived in Shelby County past 2½ years. Owned Phippips 66 gas station until recently.Buys and sells cars, including 1992 Accura bought by Katherine Smith. Formerly lived at 2840 Morning Lake in unincorporated Cordova. Used this address on multiple driver's license applications.

That appears to be a multi-unit apartment complex, per several other listings I've found for that same address:

Detonator attached to small container of gasoline, hidden either under the seat or under the dashboard. Either remotely command-detonated, or timer-detonated. More likely command-detonated from someone in a following car

She drives along, then BOOM, fire in the car, she loses control, and burns

Nothing so sophisticated, I'd expect: though professional spooks might- or might not- use such devices if they weren't concerned that there'd be clear evidence of such equipment left behind, particularly if foreign-made equipment could be used to point the blame elsewhere in a *false flag* operation, these guys are supposedly cut off from such support from embassy and other convenient means of smuggling such tech gear into a country. And the recovered Al-Quiada terror manual stressed the ability to create explosives and incendiary devices from locally available materials, such as those available from the average discount Mart-Mart, Home Depot, or, just for instance, a gas station. I can think of a couple of simple chemical compounds that would create a sudden and intense flame, and combined with a liter bottle of gasoline, would thoroughly incinerate the front seat occupants of a car if left under the driver's seat and the flames were confined inside, as in a car with the windows rolled up in the wintertime.

Thanks archy, the plot thickens.

Well, when somebody asks for my address and I don't care to give my real one, I've got a better answer than *1060 West Addison St. Chicago, Ill. 60613* now, don't I....
