| #11 Slot the b'stard, noone(!) will ever know. Chip every moslem at birth, they can fly Moslem Air, and be tracked, every flight in pig-skinned chicken wings. Time to call a halt to this rotten mess and snuff 'em. |

| #10 "I wonder when the current administration is going to wake up and realize we are in a world-wide war with islamic terrorists?" You can quit wondering, John. The answer is NEVER. They don't think any of them are personally at risk, so they don't care. Hate to say it, but the only thing that will get their panties in the correct wad is one of them falling victim to the islamonuts. (Maybe not even then, since the head fool is not at risk....) >:-( |

| #9 There have been reports by passengers on the flight that a passenger videotaped the entire flight. A blogger from another site suggested the following: The video was for use in an unsuccessful attack, to find out what went "wrong" and prevent such a "failure" in the future. In the case of a successful attack, well, the attack would have worked, with no need to debug it. Maybe. I have trouble thinking AQ wouldn't go for taking the plane down rather than merely testing reactions by passengers and crew. However, that said the Mutt said there are 25 or more boomers being trained in Yemen for similar missions. I wonder when the current administration is going to wake up and realize we are in a world-wide war with islamic terrorists? |

| #7 per a-moose it does seem odd that the AQ team can't create a good detonator on the other hand, why has no Christian yet said that the failure was a Christmas miracle |

| #6 The August date might coincide with Mutt's father's visit to the USEMBASSY. Of course we will never see them, but I'd still like to read the cable traffic from Lagos and know what actions the FBI Legat and Bureau took, if any. A transcript of Mutt's father's statement [names, dates, places] or an interview would be most interesting. |

| #5 I'd be more likely to think the CIA lost track of Abdulmutallab (Mutt for short). |

| #4 I'm starting to become suspicious of this whole deal. I have difficulty thinking the CIA would get the American public all "jacked up" with fake explosives in an airplane with nearly 300 passengers. But maybe. |

| #2 I'm starting to become suspicious of this whole deal. For example, what if the explosive substance in his underwear didn't blow up because it wasn't actually an explosive? It is a common trick to substitute fake ingredients to defeat bombers in sting operations, so even if they get through the net, they fail. Who but a chemist can easily tell the difference between ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate? |

| #1 I mean, just because the CIA has been tracking him and then his dad felt compelled to contact the State Department about him doesn't mean we should have done anything rash like not let him get on a US-bound international airplane with a few hundred passengers on board. That would probably be some type of profiling, and CAIR, the ACLU and Jesse Jackson wouldn't stand for it. |
