Texas stripper spills beans on Arab customers after terror threats

http://www.jewishworldreview.com | SAN ANTONIO (UPI) -- Three men with Arab names were charged Tuesday with making terrorist threats after allegedly telling a stripper at a topless bar they intended to blow up military bases in San Antonio.

According to a police report obtained by WOAI radio under the Texas Open Records Act, the men were "very serious" and said they were "having a good time and spending our money just like our others did before 9/11."

Some of the Sept. 11 suspects were believed to have spent the week before the attacks in a topless bar in Florida.

Patrolman Al Ballew said the three men, identified by police as Jadallah Abdallah, 21; Matram Sayez Hijaz, 20, and Rabhi Abdalla, 25, were paying "large amounts of money" to a stripper for private dances.

Abdallah and Abdalla gave addresses in San Antonio, although Abdalla claimed he was from "the West Bank." Hijaz gave police an address in Mesquite, Texas, a Dallas suburb.

Police confiscated a brown paper bag from Abdalla containing "several names and numbers and vehicle keys," as well as 21 gold and platinum credit cards. They also confiscated three Texas driver's licenses from Abdalla.

Officers also found a road map of Florida in the men's car, as well as "envelopes written in Arabic."

Mark Rich, an FBI spokesman in San Antonio, said the men were questioned by agents, and he said they were "very interested" in the comments they made, but he told WOAI that federal charges were unlikely.

The men were being detained for the Immigration and Naturalization Service and were facing state charges of making terrorist threats. They were held in the county jail in lieu of $2 million bond apiece.

Officials could not confirm if the names given were the men's real names, if they are Arabs, or whether Hijaz really was from the West Bank. Their car was registered in North Carolina.

The manager of the topless club declined to comment

They were in that topless club seeking 74 pure maidens to lap dance, Obviously innocent fun, Heh!

I hate weirdos who talk to strippers.

Shut up and let them dance.

They should pin a medal on her...provided she has anything to pin it to.

Jadallah Abdallah

I could be wrong, but wasn’t his name part of the lyrics to The Beach Boys hit “Kokomo”?

Bermuda, Jamaica,
Oooh I'm gonna take you to
Jadallah Abdallah
C'mon don't you wanna
Key Largo, Montego
Baby why don't we go...

You are on a roll here, don't stop now....

[Gumlegs]

"Don't Mess With Texas." As valid a warning now as it ever was.

I had to put on some bluegrass to get that horrible song out of my head!

"Is that a bomb in your pants or are you just happy to see me?"

[Polonius]

Now we know how the CIA can infiltrate terrorist cells — strippers, and plenty of 'em.

One of these, perhaps? 'Scuse me, y'all, I believe I have some important Homeland Security duties to attend to...It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it....

LOL! I can picture that place..

I'm guessing the Rainbow Lounge on Military Drive. Send us a live video stream SITREP via SATCOM soldier (and don't forget to wear your protective outergarments)!

What is it with Muslim terrorists and strippers? They claim to hate the decadent West but then they spend their remaining days (and nights) in strip clubs.

[marshmallow]

This is how Arab young men try to impress loose Arab women. Instead of adopting the American custom of saying that your daddy just bought General Motors, you tell them that you're a terrorist with the biggest bomb you ever did see.

"Well big boy.....you sure are handsome. Wanna show me some of that bomb? Snuggle up here honey."

This is just in case there really are no virgins waiting for them!

Dude, you forgot "XTC" at 2023 Sable Lane. Great place. Highly recommended.

To the patriotic stripper, a grateful nation says "Thanks for the Mammaries"..........
