#1 Hussain said that a friend later told him it was fertilizer and could be used to make explosives but was also reassured that Khyam was not planning to make a bomb. "

Arab "think" .... "cousin Akbar" (family, must be good-to-go).... not him, not me, not today, not planning, "decent guys".... "lots of grays" .... bottom line, all bullshit!

#2 Ever picked up a bag of sand? It's heavy.

Ever picked up a bag of fertilizer? It's light.

Bags of sand and bags of fertilizer always leak. I don't believe he didn't know what he was dealing with.

Why would someone store sand in an expensive storage facility?

Bull$hit. All of it. The only party who was duped was the British legal system. Now they'll have to deal with another terrorist in their midst.

Once again we hear the old "I was duped!" excuse. This should be made as irrelevant as the "I didn't know the law!" excuse when it comes to stuff that goes beyond a certain level of stupidity.

#3 Why would someone store sand in an expensive storage facility?

End of story.

Let's hope the government officials made sure to openly thank Nabeel for his "extensive cooperation and very helpful assistance". Perhaps his fellow jihadists will take care of the problem for us.
