U.S. intelligence agencies last month reported that a group of 22 Yemeni-Americans were training in Houston to be seamen on oil tankers, raising terrorism concerns over the unusual activity.
The Department of Homeland Security issued an Aug. 26 report from its National Terrorism Advisory System about the case.
“Reporting revealed that 22 students of Middle Eastern descent from Michigan and California were enrolled in recent maritime training courses in Houston, TX to obtain training, licensing, and/or mariner ratings during calendar year 2014,” the report said. “All students were naturalized U.S. citizens from Yemen.”

Mystery of the missing tanker: Ship carrying $100million in Kurdish oil vanishes from radar screens
dailymail.co.uk ^ | 8/29/14 | Jack Crone for MailOnline and Louise Boyle and Reuters
full title....Mystery of the missing tanker: Ship carrying $100million in Kurdish oil vanishes from radar screens 60 miles off the coast of Texas
A tanker loaded with $100 million of crude oil that has been at the center of a dispute over Iraq’s oil billions vanished off the coast of Texas on Thursday.
The Kurdish tanker disappeared from Coast Guard radar screens following a month of legal wrangling over whether it can offload its cargo in the U.S.
As the disintegration of Iraq amid mounting violence continues, the semi-autonomous regime in Kurdistan – in the north of Iraq – is trying to cash in on Iraq’s oil reserves and export its own crude.
Horrifying, they are at war with us and obama/valjar wants to manage them.
Oil tanker, LNG, could make a heck of a mess in our
harbors, combined with attacks on our energy sector,
things would go to hell pretty fast.

Remember, change is good.
Cover all control surfaces and loading/unloading interfaces on ships with pigskin. Lubricate non-wearing moving parts with hog lard. Pork and wine as the staple shipboard diet. Did I forget anything?
“All students were naturalized U.S. citizens from Yemen.”
What could possibly go wrong? /s
Did I forget anything?
Oh, yeah, and DON’T HIRE ANY MUSLIMS FOR YOUR CREW!
The section of that article about new Chinese weapon-detection systems is worth reading, too.
Whatever historians there are left to look back on the collapse of Western Civilization will find it hard to believe the extent to which we actively participated in our own demise.
A free society can’t be armored against terrorists.
A free society can, and must, destroy those who want to destroy/enslave them.
America can and must nuke all major Islamic cities, starting with Mecca.
Then command all Muslims to choose another religion or die.
Yes, we can kill all of them if they force us to.
The tanker didn’t go anywhere, just a little farther down the same thread:

Verses from the koran printed on the toilet paper.
Just so people know, this is not even slightly alarming to people who are actually in the maritime industry. There are tons of Yemeni-Americans in the merchant marine, and there have been for a long time. It is entirely unremarkable that a lot of them wound up training at the same time for this endorsement. It sounds like a juicy article, but there’s really nothing there.
