Virginia man charged in alleged plot to assassinate Bush By MATTHEW BARAKAT
Associated Press Writer
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) -- A former high school valedictorian in Virginia was charged Tuesday with conspiring to assassinate President Bush and conspiracy to support the al-Qaida terrorist network.
Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, 23, a U.S. citizen, made an initial appearance Tuesday in U.S. District Court. He claimed that he was tortured while detained in Saudi Arabia since June of 2003 and offered through his lawyer to show the judge his scars.
The indictment said that in 2002 and 2003 Abu Ali and an unidentified coconspirator discussed plans for Abu Ali to assassinate Bush. They discussed two scenarios, the indictment said, one in which Abu Ali "would get close enough to the president to shoot him on the street" and, alternatively, "an operation in which Abu Ali would detonate a car bomb."
A muslim kill the president???? You don't say. Shocking.
A member of the Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice is heard from. Islam isn't a race, it's a religion. Now shut up.
Don't forget Sirhan and RFK
I hope his 100 "friends" are being stalked and investigated by the Secret Service as we type.
CAIR and the damned saudis appear in every terrorist story.
WAY past time to get arabs and muslims OUT OF OUR COUNTRY.
Of course I do. Socioanthropology is what I do. I've been studying Mideast terrorism for 30 years. Appeasement failed for hundreds of years. We're far past the time where the West bears any responsibility for "reaching out" to those who increasingly want to rule the world under the banner of the Kahlifah. The Muslim community MUST begin doing more than meaningless, limp wristed "denounciations" of terrorism as policy.
We're looking at a terrorist trained in Saudi, birthplace of Wahhabism, which is the source of most Islamic terrorism today. A few jabs here and there can be helpful.
Nope. One person caused me to open my eyes.
I have been diligently searching for møøselimbs that don't either actively or tacitly support terrorism ever since.
I have found a few. Very few.
Oh, and the 19 møøselimbs that murdered over 3000 of my fellow countrymen had a bit to do with it, too...
All Semitic people are caucasion.
FBI should look at the petition site to see who signed it and keep an eye on them.
Yeah. Nothing like that has happened since Sirhan Sirhan...
Why slur at all? There are Sikhs and probably a few others that would find that offensive.
Of COURSE it's clear what he was up to. I don't want the media to omit the fact. I would like them to stop stressing it in every paragraph of every article. It's being used as a keyphrase to obscure any other facts which come to light later in the case. I can only speak for myself, though.
Yep, he's now among the ones we know about.
I'll bet it was a Saudi Baptist minister.
I was thinking back to the Miss World Competition in Nigeria. Someone connected to the pageant had a letter published in which she stated that Mohammed would have liked the competition.
As a result the muslims rioted and burned down 23 Christian churches in Kaduna. Their leaders and apologists actually blamed the writer of the letter.
These people need to get a grip.
The lawyer:
"Mr. Nubani is licensed to practice Law in New York and Virginia, and specializes in immigration law.
He has worked on many high profile cases, including:

•Indictment in Alleged Bush Plot
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A former Virginia high school valedictorian who had been detained in Saudi Arabia as a suspected terrorist was charged Tuesday with conspiring to assassinate President Bush and with supporting the Al Qaeda (search) terrorist network.
Ahmed Omar Abu Ali (search), 23, a U.S. citizen, made an initial appearance Tuesday in U.S. District Court but did not enter a plea. He contended that he was tortured while detained in Saudi Arabia since June of 2003 and offered through his lawyer to show the judge his scars.
The federal indictment said that in 2002 and 2003 Abu Ali and an unidentified co-conspirator discussed plans for Abu Ali to assassinate Bush. They discussed two scenarios, the indictment said, one in which Abu Ali "would get close enough to the president to shoot him on the street" and, alternatively, "an operation in which Abu Ali would detonate a car bomb."
Click here to read the indictment. The White House had no immediate comment.
Abu Ali was born in Houston and moved to Falls Church, Va., where he was valedictorian of his high school class. Federal prosecutors say Abu Ali joined an Al Qaeda cell in Saudi Arabia in 2001. The alleged Bush plot occurred while he was studying in that country
2001?????????? BEFORE 9-11 OR AFTER??????????
