The U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service has detained at an unknown location a former Sudanese Air Force pilot who may have been planning to hijack an airliner and fly it into a target in the United States, U.S. officials told CNN on Friday.

What, he got tired of bombing churches and hospitals in southern Sudan? Maybe his slave ran away. Who knows with the Islamo-fascist-Sudanese.

"I wonder if Binalshibh gave this guy up under our questioning.." Even if he didn't, they should say he did. That would put others on the run where they are more likely to be caught.

I don't think you'll be seeing any hi-jackings anymore. Picture this scenario all you air-unaware dummies....
Remember that "solve all" directive to fortify cockpit doors? Well, the best way to commit horror in the air now, will be to have pilots in the cockpit who are sleepers. Can you say "deliberate midair?" Maybe over downtown Chicago at mid-day? We have absolutely no control over who is in the cockpit on flights originating from foreign country's. At any given peak trffic period in the air, there are most likely 50~75 hurling hunks of Islam originated tin, each being piloted by people we have no control over. If you want to end terrorism, just ban all flights to this country from Islamic nations. If the elite in those places find out they are stuck in their own hell, you will see an instant end to terrorism. They have no guaranteed right to twist our nuts by coming here. Let them enjoy the beauty of what they have created in their own back yard.

An awful lot of registered democrats have been arrested recently. Unless they are convicted of a felony before the election, they can still vote, so I don't think it will have a major impact on the outcome of any race.

I wonder if Binalshibh gave this guy up under our questioning.. Good guess. Seems likely, given the sudden notice with significant details. He was ratted out to be sure. Probably by Bin-Gilgamesch or whatever his freaking name is.

An awful lot of registered democrats have been arrested recently. Thanks. I just spit a mouthful of partially chewed tuna sandwhich onto the top of my desk. :O)

Random thought number 2,397,612: Let's take some of the defectors on the CIA payroll from the former USSR and turn them loose on these guys - I have flashbacks to the 70s and 80s spy flicks - "We have ways of making you talk."
To: Tumbleweed_Connection
I'm sure that he was just joking. You know how those Islamists love a good laugh.

Well, you know, in the interest of fairness and doing the right thing, mail-in balloting from the military overseas should also include un-convicted military prisoners and since the poor pajamabads in Guantanamo are being forced to remain on a U.S. military base against their will, they should be granted the same rights as any unconvicted U.S. citizen, right?

"The communication included the suspect's name and other identifying information."I was wondering WHY somebody thought the FBI giving the name and description of a wanted perp out to it's agents was important...it's routine, after all...then I scrolled up and saw it's CNN. LOL. Figures.

Just heard FOX news mention that they have this scumbag in custody here in Winston Salem,NC.
His name was VERY bizarre, something like Winky Mohammed, Winky Mohammed.
