FBI investigating ‘mass destruction’ inquiry
By Rick Russell Senior Reporter February 21, 2002
Federal and local authorities are investigating a man who approached a University of Memphis professor last week seeking information about weapons of mass destruction. The professor, who wished to remain anonymous, said a man of Middle Eastern descent approached him while he was in his office Feb. 13 and asked for a “crash course in the physics that deals with mass destruction.”
In return, the man told the professor he would pay him money for the requested information.
“He told me that money was no object, and that he had plenty of it,” said the professor.
The professor said the bizarre nature of the man’s inquiry and inconsistencies the man gave about his background prompted him to notify Federal authorities while the man sat in his office.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation then informed U of M police, who found the man still sitting in the office when they made the scene.
Bruce Harber, director of public safety at The U of M, said the man was compliant during questioning and supplied officers with a Tennessee driver’s license and a work visa.
However, Harber said the man gave conflicting statements about background information and how he got to the U of M campus.
Police then contacted Immigration Naturalization Service to confirm his background.
INS verified that the information was valid and released the man.
Authorities would only identify the man as a Somalian citizen carrying a visa issued from Nigeria who is currently living in Memphis.
George Bolds, spokesman for the Memphis office of the FBI, said they are currently looking into the incident.
The man is not a student at The U of M.
Notice the Tennesee drivers license????
Yes, this is a strange story indeed. I wouldn't be surprised if the guy works for the US government.
A friend of Katherine Smith's?
It is mind boggling that they let this man go. How stupid can they be? I guess they forgot that the Constitution was not meant to be a suicide pact. It is ridiculous that non-citizens of the U.S. are automatically given constitutional rights. They should have found some reason to hold this man for a few days, at the very least, while they investigated his background more thoroughly.
Yes. That is where the lady helped them get all sorts of fake ones and then turned up dead.
And, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH DON WILEY WHO WAS NOT A MICROBIOLOGIST AND ANYONE WHO MAKES ANY CONNECTION HAS A BIG TIME SCREW LOOSE.
ENOUGH OF THAT.
ONE has a BARF alert to it because it's written by a champion of the illegals being able to get DL's.
Hubby has a questions, if other States are no longer recognizing our DL's does than mean our DL's are invalid in other States and we are now driving illegally in them? Does this also apply to CDL holders? If that is the case then it creates all kinds of legal nightmares. Insurance would not be valid in case of a wreck. Would you be permitted to continue driving if you were stopped? Or would you have to get some one else with a "valid" license from another State to come move your car? Could you be charged with driving with out a license?
These questions have not been addressed or even voiced. As more and more States consider Tennessee a rogue state and refuse to recognize our DL's.
Tenn. must be ground zero for the al queerdos thugs in Ameica, al Fuqra.
This link between the al Queerdos and al Fuqra is exactly why Danny Pearl was kidnapped and butchered.
Danny was getting ready to have several articles in the WSJ about the connections of al Queerdos who want to kill every American and their Jihad in America, the al Fuqra.
Once a legitimate and major newspaper in the USA, like the WSJ started to publish front page articles on the links between the al Queerdos and al Fuqra. The pressure would be enormous at the local, state and federal levels to arrest and lock up those Americans and the al Queerdos here illegally, who would like to kill all of us.
If the al Queerdos don't have a huge network to help them in the US, they will be unsuccessful in any future terrorism in America. They need the black muslims, the lefties and the al Fuqra's to support them, hide them, and to provide cover from them as they plan the next acts of terrorism in American against Americans!
Without al Fuqra support, the al Queerdos would just be a bunch of rich Islamic goat humpers with words of evil. Without the the al Fuqra support, they are basically harmless to America/Americans here in America.
This is why Danny Pearl was butchered! The al Queerdos who want to destroy America, butcher Americans and control the world, without al Fuqra are basically harmless to America and those of us who live in America. They can only strike at our resources out of America without the support of al Fuqra!
Destroy al Fuqra in the USA while destroying the al Queerdos in the Middle East and the rest of the world, and America becomes a safer nation to live in!
