Man arrested with suicide note and otherwise bad intentions on flight

The war on terrorism is again at Minnesota's front door after federal authorities arrested a man who they suspect has terrorism ties. Federal sources [said] the man was arrested last Wednesday at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. Sources in the Twin Cities and in Washington D.C. said the man arrived on a flight and was taken into federal custody. Along the way, customs agents found disturbing items in his possession.
How disturbing were they?
Sources confirm [Ali Mohamed] Almosaleh was carrying a suicide [note] when he was arrested. They say that note indicated a specific time and date for carrying out some sort of public suicide. He was also carrying CDs and DVDs, which federal sources say contained anti-American material.
Ah, he had a Jadakiss CD on him!
A source also confirms Almosaleh had something with him indicating a connection with at least one known terrorist. Almosaleh arrived on a KLM flight last week. A source confirmed he began his travels in Syria and stopped in Amsterdam before continuing to the Twin Cities.
Makes sense. Receive last minute instructions in Syria, and one last night out on the town in Amsterdam. Word is the coffee houses are wonderful!

#4  I'm always of two minds about these reports:

- a smart terror group (not that al-Quaeda are the sharpest tools in the shed, I'm just saying) might send a couple of distractions like this, while slipping the real culprits in somewhere else.

- however, this does help keep the US voting public's eyes on the ball.

#3  They say that note indicated a specific time and date for carrying out some sort of public suicide.

At that time he should allowed to keep his promise to Allah.

#2  A really good Muslim would drop dead as soon as he got off the plane in Amsterdam.
