To avoid multiple vanity threads regarding any news from press conferences, let's keep a live commentary going today. FBI Tip Line: 1-888-324-9800

[nicmarlo]

or this one: Jordanian Nabbed in Hollywood, Florida

[Letitring]

Absolutely. I suppose it's good they bubbled to the surface and gave us three more names to add to our growing collection. Actually, I think two of them had more than one name.

[JOE6PAK]

I KNEW IT....TOURIST GUY DID IT!

[nicmarlo]

But the liberal media likes to bury stories.

[Letitring]

Plus all the fertilizer, chemicals, etc., missing in that same general Hollywood area. AND the tanker truck that went missing in West Virginia, last year, and has never been found.

[Dog]

Here it is ....4 Pakistani's flee ship in Norfolk VA

[nicmarlo]

hmmmmmmmmm. Didn't know about missing truck (and still not found). What info about kind of truck?

[Dog]

That was the one...

[Dog]

Anyone remember if those 4 in post 246 were ever caught??

[livius]

Yes, he'd overstayed his visa some time ago (as usual).

But I'm pretty sure it's not the same one who was involved in the plane incident, which did happen around that time, also.

This man was trying to go by train from South Florida to Palatka, but didn't have ID and had his companion tried to buy the ticket for him (in cash). I have no idea what lead them to state that he was on his way to DC. They expected him to meet other people in Palatka, if I recall correctly. Which I may not...it was not heavily reported, and I only noticed it because it struck me as so strange that anybody like that would go to Palatka inthe first place.

[Letitring]

It was a gasoline tanker truck. Driver called his family, nothing sounded out of the ordinary, never heard from again. Noone has seen the driver or the truck since. Happened in West Virginia last year, truck, trailer and driver, just gone.

[livius]

No, not the dread Bulgarian Boxcutter.

[Katya]

Whoa....the Twin Towers tourist survivor is in the background of your van pic....okay, just started reading this thread, perhaps the answer will become clear.

[livius]

yes, that's it, the Jordanian.

[nicmarlo]

We may want, somehow, to keep these kinds of threads re: missing/deported ME's on a new thread, to help jog memories, etc. What say you?

[browardchad]

We are down to the fine art of TAUNTING...sit back and watch it...

Definitely a possibility. The much-reported tearful comment of "now this is personal" after the 13-year-old was shot might have had more to do with the message on the Tarot card, (and/or Moose's assertion an hour before the shooting that the schools were safe) than with the fact that a child was shot.

Of course, a good test of that hypothesis is to take the Moose show off the airwaves, and let some tight-lipped, non-committal LE who doesn't editorialize take it from here.

[Letitring]

That is odd. Nothing these type people do makes sense, until I consider they want to kill us all, then it adds up. Yes, it is two different guys. The guy I was speaking of was arrested when he disembarked in Miami. The Feds were waiting for him when he got off the plane. Never have heard what they thought he was here for, just that he had terrorist connections and was a wanted person. Reminds me of that one the Feds got in NJ, I think, he was carrying dirty bomb making plans. :(

[nicmarlo]

a gasoline tanker truck

I'd like to know where that went....what he/they are doing with it.

[Letitring]

I hope all the freeper families are safe. Several folks said they had family in the area of the latest shooting, and were waiting word regarding their safety. I have spoken with my friends, relatives. They are fine, just fed up and disgusted and scared, and alot of other feelings, I'm sure. It's just so sad to see this happening in our America.

[Dog]

Nic....I just pinged ~Kim4VRWC's~ to that thread and asked her to archive it for us on the Beltway shooter thread..
