Federal Officials and Rep. Peter King: Suspected Plane Bomber's Name is "Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab"
Friday, December 25, 2009 | Kristinn

Rep. Peter King has named the suspected terrorist who attempted to blow up an Amsterdam to Detroit flight today as "Abdul Mudallad.", according to the AP in an article timestamped 7:04 p.m. EST.

King was just on live with CNN talking about the failed terrorist attack, but the CNN anchor cut King off when he started to say the suspect's name and would not allow King to name him. The anchor said CNN was not able to confirm the name.

King is the Ranking Member on the House Homeland Security Committee.

Citing federal officials, MSNBC is also naming the suspect, but uses a more complete version: "Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab".

MSNBC also reports Abdul Mutallab left Lagos, Nigeria yesterday and boarded flight 253 in Amsterdam today.

The Marxists want everybody servile using either guilt or secrecy. We can’t have too many Christians mad at Muslims on Christmas, can we?

I consider CNN’s behavior on this episode to be a classic and continual example of inept they really are. Here you had an actual expert and authority on the show...and they really didn’t want him to display any of his knowledge. So they sit and wait twelve hours...until the cops will give exclusive information to them...and then they cite confidential sources then.

On an average day....IF I were to watch CNN for twelve hours....I could show you forty such examples that come and go. It’s almost like watching the Three Stooges performing news analysis and expecting 8th grade students to run the operation. Yet, they don’t seem to mind the poor performance.

If Rep King had stopped the joker, and simply said...”I am an authority on this matter”...they probably would have cut him off at that point.

“And CNN and others would hide the Muslim affiliation of these murderers, and once they can no longer hold the dyke back of information flow because we are international with the internet, they then try to explain it away as psychological imbalances, frustrated at lack of marriage, not adjusted to US military life, etc. etc.”

CNN: “He was “inhibited” as a child........

But, don't call the Ft. Hood act of terrorism an "act of terrorism

Maybe it's because the Ft Hood terrorist was listed as a friend on BO's facebook page.;~)

It is just damn amazing how hard it is for the MSM to say the name of the suspect. Just like it was in the Texas military base and how it was impossible during the Presidential campaign for anyone to say Barrack Hussein Obama. This PC is going to cost us more lives and diminish our chances of a recovery.

I think we should come up with the “Phlegm Scale.”

The amount of phlegm needed to say their name determines the likelihood of being a terrorist.

Remind me again, please. We need these people in our country why?

To add diversity to the type of dangerous psychopath that votes Democrat.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.

“Suddenly, we hear a bang. It sounded like a firecracker went off,” said Jasper Schuringa, a film director who was traveling to the US to visit friends.

“When [it] went off, everybody panicked ... Then someone screamed, ‘Fire! Fire!’”

Schuringa, sitting in seat 20J, in the right-most section of the Airbus 330, looked to his left. “I saw smoke rising from a seat ... I didn’t hesitate. I just jumped,” he said.

Schuringa dove over four passengers to reach Abdul Mutallab’s seat. The suspect had a blanket on his lap. “It was smoking and there were flames coming from beneath his legs.”

“I searched on his body parts and he had his pants open. He had something strapped to his legs.”

The unassuming hero ripped the flaming, molten object — which resembled a small, white shampoo bottle — off Abdul Mutallab’s left leg, near his crotch. He said he put out the fire with his bare hands.

Schuringa yelled for water, and members of the flight crew soon appeared with fire extinguishers. Then, he said, he hauled the suspect out of the seat.

“I took him in a choke to the first class and all the people were like, ‘What’s going on?!”

“I don’t feel like a hero,” Schuringa told the Post as he recuperated with pals. “It was something that came completely natural ... It was something where I had to do something or it was too late.”
