FBI on the lookout for 2 Arab women


ISLAMABAD, June 05 (PNS): A special team of United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is searching for two Arab women in the federal capital, who are believed to be wives of detained Al-Qaida men, who could provide useful information about Osama Bin Laden and other Al-Qaida fighters.

Investigation carried out by PNS revealed that FBI had recently detained two fugitives of Al-Qaida from Chinese province of Sinkiang and Karghiztan.

During investigation, both Al-Qaida men informed FBI about the presence of their wives some where in Islamabad.

Well-informed sources disclosed that after this information a special team of FBI who recently arrived in Islamabad from Karghiztan had started searching for these two Arab women with the co-operation of Pakistan intelligence agencies.

For this purpose, FBI and Pakistan officials had raided a hotel at Pir Wadhai and other places, however, they had not yet made any progress towards arresting these women, sources said.

Sources revealed that FBI official firmly believed that these two women were hiding in Islamabad and their arrest could provide very important information about Osama Ben Laden and other AL-Qaida leadership.

I think this is unnecessary profiling. Just because they know the women are Arab doesn't mean they should be looking for Arab women. The ought to check the other 250 million people in this country first.

i needed that little bit of humor. i had to stop watching fox news. i couldn't stand the thickness of the brain of those that can't fight their way out of a paper bag. i want to scream about this new world of politicaly correct. it is also making me quite angry, because i feel that i am getting so hard because i can't pound sense into these liberals.

Judging from what I experienced with our wunnerful "airport security" policies, there will be long lines of grey haired, 60 year old men and groups of 4 and 5 year old children, along with several 20 something blonde, Nordic females being checked, creating even longer delays and "airport rage" incidents against the abjectly incompetent "security" personnel at the airports.

Any middle eastern female, fully clothed in a burqa and carrying bags of explosives or radioactive material will be waved through without question, because they don't want to be viewed as "racially profiling".

I guess now that we must be so politically correct and "never" profile, if a bank gets robbed by a gang of female midgets who walk with a limp, the po-lees will be required to only stop 6 foot tall, male Olympic athletes and let any "vertically challenged" lady pass unimpeded.

I'm glad, in a way, that I'm not the only one who thinks things are getting pretty stupid out there.
  That's one of the reasons I haunt FR, to see if there are others who get the feeling it's getting worse. We can't ALL be insane, can we?
