It comes from the Northeast Intelligence Network, so it’s credibility is questionable - not to say that something didn’t happen.

These rat scumbags probably trying to target families like mine, flying home from vacations

An August I noticed a LOT of middle eastern families wandering around Wally World - the women layered and swabbed head to toe in fabric in 100 degree heat pushing strollers, the men walking around in loud sport shirts with bellies hanging out. The open treatment of women as objects to be hidden from the light of day is a religious custom it is disgusting to observe.

I’d love to see a follow-up on this to see what happens to the families carrying the vasoline, wires, and computer laptop. Will they be released? Are they members of the Saudi Royal family?

This was a bomb. Aerated petroleum jelly(similar looking to store bought vaseline) combined with a strong oxidizer(H peroxide) can produce an explosion.

How powerful, I’m not sure.

I suspect this story is true, otherwise we would have heard screaming from CAIR about the “abuse” of these Arab travelers. The perps were probably testing security to see what they could get into their luggage without detection.

Interesting point brought up in the arcticle...they smear vaseline on the arms and necks to ward off attackers...so, if you suspect one on a plane, do not grab them, double up both fists and nail ‘em square in the neck, drop them in one blow, ‘cuz if ya grab, you will lose the advantage, and possibly your life

More Saudi hijackers, this time with a an aerated petroluem jelly bomb and all greased up for close quarters battle with the passengers.

Said TSA and FBI: Nothing to look at here. Move along, please.

There are two options:

1. Mere coincidences all compiled to paint this picture. Unfortunate but possible.

2. A probing run. Typically before terror attacks you see probing efforts. The idea is to see what works to get passed security without ever doing anything that can really get you in trouble. You pack things that are very similar to what the real bomb later will be like, without ever using explosives etc. Plausible deniability is the name of the game. If you consistently get through security with three Vaseline jars taped together and repackaged, electrical wires in the case and residue of SEMTEX on a vapor test, obviously such a technique would work when you carry real explosives instead of Vaseline. Using women or children as part of terrorist schemes is typical od Middle Eastern groups. So even this can be a part of the deception plan. Almost always you have probing efforts before any really large terrorist attack. They test your security capabilities, procedures, etc.

Looks like there might be something to this.

For your ping lists?

...the Middle Eastern passengers were taken from the checkpoint to the Orlando Police Station at the airport by police and FBI officials. Ultimately, they were released by federal officials well after flight 1824 had left the airport.

Un-flippin' believable.

ME passengers, carrying bomb components, verified hits for SEMTEX, forged credentials... "Aww, let 'em go. These folks are fine."

Is it a requirement to score >70 on the Moron scale to be in federal law enforcement???

I’m ready to ban all smart ass Muslims playing games with strange shit in their bags, from scheduled commercial flights..

There are simply too many of these bastards who are too crazy to allow onto flights with “normal” folks...

Being PC doesn’t require one to willingly commit suicide.

The clowns on this particular flight - with the greasy necks and arms — strange items resembling bombs in their bags, should go onto the NO FLY list for their lifetime..

The silly bastards want to play their cute games - then let them walk, swim or stay the hell home in their turd world environment..

Even more disconcerting, TSA and security officials observed that two of the Middle Eastern men intended for the flight had smeared Vaseline on their arms and neck areas – a common tactic among hand-to-hand fighters who want the advantage in the event someone tries to grab them or put them in a headlock. Covered by the greasy agent, they are better able to extricate themselves during close-quarters, hand-to-hand fighting.

Always request a blanket. You can wrap an unruly hijacker in it (drape the whole then over his head/body mass or wrap it around him like a rope). Greased arms won't help him and neither will holding a knife.
