Could this guy have diplomatic status so that he can't be prosecuted for breaking the law?

"Do you know of a way to get Hilton involved in cleaning out these jerks?"

Two kinds of hotels, franchises and corporate.

Franchise, call the Hilton Corporate office and make them aware of the situation. Hilton has a right to pull their name off the Hotel.

Hilton Corporate, call and identify yourself as a reporter for an Internet news publication, ask for their media department, fill them in on the whole story, and ask if they would care to comment before you broke the story.

They'll clean house.

Call O'Reilly regardless.

Comped = free drinks all around.

I was ignoring it because I didn't even know where Marco is, and plain old rape threads don't interest me

I saw I was pinged hours ago and had the same reaction--I would get around to it, maybe, after the other pings. We need a new headline on this story.

[Luis Gonzalez]

CALL BILL O'REILLY RIGHT NOW!

Our rights are for our Citizens this man is a guest in our country and not a citizen. He has no right to rape a child or cheer the killing of thousands of Americans. He has no civil rights. What the hell is the matter with you?

Could the Saudis own the hotel?

We need a new headline on this story.

I agree... there's much more to this story than the current title suggests!

I know, when I opened this thread I never suspected I'd be reading about a nest of terrorists/symps in a luxury hotel either.

When you think about it, what BETTER place for a terrorist "safe house", than a big hotel? Having people coming and going at all hours, carrying luggage and boxes would not seem out of the ordinary. It would be really hard to keep them under surveillance without the cooperation of hotel staff (who might be in on the deal), etc, etc.

Thanks for the ping, Bunny.

They better get this guy big time!!!

I hope so, too.

[SamAdams76]

Thanks for the ping. I saw the thread earlier but didn't click on it because I figured it was just about some rapist. This is big news. Congratulations to "My Favorite Headache" for exposing this possible terrorist cell.

[wingnuts'nbolts]

I know, you just thought it was another thread about the rapist who used to live in the WH.

[MissAmericanPie]

A joke? Kind of like the War on Terror?

[Nitro]

These guys are not the brightest pennies in the drawer...

how do they get away with this stuff?

[Catspaw]

I want you to be extremely careful. Memorialize what you remember about him & your impressions (take notes, keep a notepad next to your bed in case you wake up remembering something). Type up this stuff--it doesn't have to be organized, just notes. Then e-mail it to a friend. Make a copy of your notes (put it on a 3 1/2" floppy) and give it to someone to hold (or mail it to yourself or a friend or relative). Get the info out of your hands into the hands of someone else for safekeeping.

Most of all, keep yourself safe. From this point on, do not post anything about this on FR. I don't want to know. You don't want me to know. But most importantly, you don't want *ANYONE* reading details about this on FR or anyplace else.

Do we even know just how many Corporations in the US are Saudi owned? A Pakistani runs this particular Hilton.

[Protagoras]

Our rights are for our Citizens this man is a guest in our country and not a citizen.

I'm afraid you are incorrect. Take it up with the founders or disavow the constitution. I didn't make the rules.

He has no right to rape a child

No one has the right to commit an act of agression on another person. To imply that I said that is despicable. I am talking about the right to be tried and found guilty or not guilty. YOU are not the police, judge, and jury all rolled into one. No one else is either.

or cheer the killing of thousands of Americans.

He is not charged with that in the story.

He has no civil rights.

Incorrect. And it can only be assumed that you are uninterested in civil rights in any case.

What the hell is the matter with you?

Nothing, I'm fine, how about you? You seem a mite troubled and aggressive. Perhaps you should talk to someone about your problem.

The Saudis seem to own everything these days.....well besides what the Chinese own.....:o

[WRhine]

Hicham and a few others that day were quoted and seen giving high five's to fellow muslims and saying later on "This is the beginning...America will spill more blood and we shall dance" all kinds of crap being said. NOTHING WAS DONE ABOUT IT.

That is one heck of an incredible story. Thanks for passing it on.

Oh and Islam is a religion of peace.
