Lesbian Muslim Terror Suspects in Texas Arrested; Explosives at House Detonated...

Lesbian Muslim Terror Suspects in Texas Arrested; Explosives at House Detonated, Terrorized Neighbors, Tested Police Response

How many chances do two Muslim women get to violate the law with terrorist threats and test the system?

Many chances, apparently, if they're "Kimberly" Asma Al-Homsi and Aisha Abdul-Rahman Hamad of Arlington, Texas. Remember them?

As I told you in April, Al-Homsi, a Syrian with dual citizenship, was friends with Wadih El-Hage, Osama Bin Laden's personal secretary, convicted of the two 1998 U.S. Embassy bombings in East Africa.

"Kimberly" Asma Al-Homsi & Aisha Abdul-Rahman Hamad: Lesbian Muslim Terror Suspects Act Crazy to Test System In February, the two women--who live together as lesbian "domestic partners" (which is supposed to be haram--forbidden--by Islam) were caught surveilling planes' take-off and landing at Dallas' Love Field airport with binoculars. And they were also caught pacing and counting the number of paces inside the airport terminals (which authorities say is a typical surveillance and planning technique).

On July 4th, the women were reported driving near the runways at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.

And Al-Homsi is already on probation for a 2005 incident in which Garland Road near Arlington, Texas had to be shut down because she said she had a grenade she was waving at motorists (it turned out to be a fake) and threatened to blow it up. The two women have repeatedly been questioned by the FBI and Al-Homsi has long-range assault rifle and explosives training according to a February intelligence bulletin issued in the Dallas area.

Yesterday, police had a six-hour stand-off at Al-Homsi's and Hamad's home, and it appears set up by Al-Homsi to test police response time and methods/procedures regarding explosive devices. Al-Homsi shot at Arlington police robots with a paintball gun, while they tried to detonate an apparent explosive device on the lawn, and a bomb squad was called in for four explosive devices found in the home. Both women were arrested after the episode. Police found "lots of ammo" and "things used in different types of devices," which they wouldn't discuss further.

Al-Homsi called police, early Monday morning, claiming Hamad, had threatened her with a knife, but again, it appears to be a set-up to test police response. The Al-Homsi/Hamad neighbors have long lived in fear and can't allow their children to play outside. WATCH THE NEWS VIDEO from Dallas/Forth Worth's CBS 11.

"Police say that Monday morning, when an officer came to the door, Ms. Hamad threatened to shoot him. She told him the only way she would leave was in a body bag. So began the standoff, during which she fired a paintball gun at a tactical robot and missed, police say, and at the end of which a negotiator persuaded her to come out peacefully. Once outside, Ms. Hamad, 50, fought with them while they tried to handcuff her, police say, so they used a Taser on her.

Police took Ms. Hamad to a hospital, where she was to undergo a mental evaluation. She is likely to face assault charges, Arlington police spokeswoman Christy Gilfour said.

Meanwhile, police searched the home on Wembley Road and found four explosive devices, one of which was sitting on a bedroom table.

Citing an ongoing investigation, Arlington Assistant Fire Marshal Stephen Lea would not say what the devices were.

"We do not know whether they would function as [explosive] devices until we have time to study them and look at them and test the materials," Mr. Lea said. "I can tell you this; there wasn't anything in there that would have blown her house to pieces."

Ms. Hamad's friend and alleged victim, Ms. Al-Homsi, was jailed on a charge of possessing a prohibited weapon. She was being held, with bail set at $3,000. . . .

Dallas police and federal terrorism officials have acknowledged investigating the pair, but police officials have said they had no direct evidence the women have ties to terrorism [DS: "Ties" to it? They ARE it.]. The women have accused authorities of violating their rights and of religious and racial profiling."

I don't believe for a second that either one of these women is crazy. They're just acting that way to test the system for their Islamofascist comrades--test the system, conduct dry runs, and see how much they can get away with. And they're getting away with a lot. Way too much. They are laughing at us.

Don't forget, Al-Qaeda has long instructed operatives--per its training manual and elsewhere--to do things to obscure their real plots, including directions to act crazy or insane, so plots won't be taken seriously, once discovered.

Bizarre String Of Incidents Unfold After Standoff

(CBS) ARLINGTON, Tex. Texas police arrested a woman after a six-hour standoff Monday. Eleven hours later, the woman’s domestic partner had also been arrested and the FBI, Lewisville and Arlington bomb squad units were one scene.

According to police, it all started just after midnight on the 1000 block of Wembley Road. That’s where police say Aisha Abdul-Rahman Hamad lives with her domestic partner, Kimberly Asma Al-Homsi, and their two adult sons.

When police arrived, they immediately demanded neighbors to turn off their porch lights. They had seen an infrared beam coming from the women’s house and were worried someone might have a night-vision scope on a gun.

During the standoff, police say Hamad fired a paintball gun at an officer.

Six hours later, police say it seemed as though Hamad would surrender peacefully. But instead, officers say she inexplicably charged at them and started fighting. That’s when they used a stun gun to subdue Hamad and end the standoff.

Hamad was arrested on charges of aggravated assault and was sent to JPS to undergo psychiatric treatment. According to police, Hamad had also assaulted Al-Homsi with a knife.

After arresting Hamad, police came back to the house with a search warrant. They found lots of ammunition and “things used in other types of devices,” said Stephen Lea with the Arlington Fire Department.

Two suspicious packages were also found inside the house. The Arlington bomb squad, using a robot, detonated both. The contents of the packages are undergoing analysis.

Police then turned their attention to Al-Homsi, who was dressed in Muslim robes and camouflage. She was arrested on an illegal weapons charge.

When asked to empty her pockets, large amounts of cash poured out. She gave her son a hug before entering police custody.

Neighbors say they have been suspicious of the two women for months.

“We don’t let our girls out,” said Bill Taylor, a resident of the neighborhood. “Coming in the front yard has become kind of a dangerous thing, or it seems to be. You just don’t know what’s going to happen.”

The women are no strangers to trouble with the law. In March, Dallas police questioned them after they were seen using binoculars to watch flights at Love Field.

The pair told officers they were watching the planes for entertainment. They also claimed they were victims of racial profiling.

At the time of the Love Field incident, Al-Homsi was on probation for making a terroristic threat. In December 2005, she waved a fake hand grenade at a motorist. A judge put her on probation for two years.

Women arrested after police standoff

Arlington: 2 were investigated after earlier airport incidents

12:00 AM CDT on Tuesday, July 17, 2007

It started with a routine domestic disturbance, except that the pair involved has recently been under investigation by federal terrorism officials.

Before the day ended, Arlington police had negotiated a six-hour standoff, their robot had been shot at with a paintball gun, and they had called in a bomb squad over four potentially explosive devices.

Kimberly Al-Homsi called 911 about 12:40 a.m. Monday. She said her friend, Aisha Hamad, had threatened her with a knife. The two are noteworthy because a few months ago, they were seen at Dallas Love Field, both dressed in camouflage pants under traditional Muslim robes, conducting what appeared to be surveillance, officials said.

Police say that Monday morning, when an officer came to the door, Ms. Hamad threatened to shoot him. She told him the only way she would leave was in a body bag.

So began the standoff, during which she fired a paintball gun at a tactical robot and missed, police say, and at the end of which a negotiator persuaded her to come out peacefully. Once outside, Ms. Hamad, 50, fought with them while they tried to handcuff her, police say, so they used a Taser on her.

Police took Ms. Hamad to a hospital, where she was to undergo a mental evaluation. She is likely to face assault charges, Arlington police spokeswoman Christy Gilfour said.

Meanwhile, police searched the home on Wembley Road and found four explosive devices, one of which was sitting on a bedroom table.

Citing an ongoing investigation, Arlington Assistant Fire Marshal Stephen Lea would not say what the devices were.

“We do not know whether they would function as [explosive] devices until we have time to study them and look at them and test the materials,” Mr. Lea said. “I can tell you this; there wasn’t anything in there that would have blown her house to pieces.”

Ms. Hamad’s friend and alleged victim, Ms. Al-Homsi, was jailed on a charge of possessing a prohibited weapon. She was being held, with bail set at $3,000.

The terrorism angle stems from Feb. 25, when the two women were spotted at Love Field acting in a way authorities found suspicious. Surveillance video showed one of them walking back and forth, apparently pacing off distances.

When confronted, the women told officials they were looking for the Frontiers of Flight museum.

Two days later, the pair was spotted at the airport again. This time Ms. Al-Homsi, 42, was sitting on the hood of a car looking through binoculars at airplanes. Dallas officers stopped the car nearby, but the women refused to let police search it, authorities say.

The women also came under scrutiny after they were reported driving near the runways at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport on July 4.

Dallas police and federal terrorism officials have acknowledged investigating the pair, but police officials have said they had no direct evidence the women have ties to terrorism. The women have accused authorities of violating their rights and of religious and racial profiling.

In 2005, Ms. Al-Homsi was accused of waving a fake grenade at a motorist on Central Expressway during a spasm of road rage. Officials charged her with a bomb hoax, and she was placed on probation. She is said to have long-range assault rifle and explosives training, according to a Dallas police intelligence bulletin issued March 5.
