DENVER (AP/CBS4) An advocacy group for Somali immigrants has cautioned against linking terrorism to a man found dead in a Denver hotel with a pound of highly toxic sodium cyanide in his room. U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey said Thursday terrorism couldn't be ruled out, but that it was not indicated in the investigation.

Saleman Abdirahman Dirie, 29, of Ottawa was found dead Monday, and police say a powder found in his room was cyanide.

The cause of death hasn't been established. Police say they don't suspect foul play and the FBI says there's no apparent connection to terrorism.

The Somali Justice Advocacy Center in St. Paul, Minn., said Thursday that connecting Dirie's death to terrorism "is a rush to judgment."

Acquaintances have said Dirie's family came from Somalia as refugees and are now Canadian citizens.

All sorts of people falling ill or dying with anthrax and cyanide in hotel rooms all over the nation -- Denver, Las Vegas, etc.

Nope, nothing to see here. Let's not rush to judgment. Okay, so he was a radical Islamist in his Internet postings and called for Jihad against Christians, but let's not jump to any conclusions. Why, any one of us could be carrying a jar of thousands of lethal doses of Anthrax cultures or cyanide into a hotel room these days.

REMAIN CALM! ALL IS WELLLLLlllllll!!! ...

No, of course not, not if the devotees of the Administration’s beloved TROP are involved...especially if they are dog-vomit Somalis. As we all know, carrying around a pound of cyanide to hotel rooms in foreign countries is an imperative of the superior Somali culture now infesting this country.

The Somali Justice Advocacy Center is the only one in the mix jumping to conclusions or rushing to judgment. The FBI and Denver law enforcement have bent over backwards not to make the link.

Now you know, us commoners are not bright enough to figure these things out, so we had just better listen to our masters.

They know what is best for us, don’t cha know!

Could be. Either for suicide or homicide.

It wouldn't be nearly enough material to poison a reservoir, although I suppose he could have been a really dumb terrorist.

They sure do think we’re stupid.

ROTFL.

He’s not a terrorist if he doesn’t have an official Al Qaeda membership card. If he puts cyanide into food at the Democrat convention and kills hundreds of people, he’s still not a terrorist if he hasn’t been to Afghanistan before 2001. And furthermore Islam is a peaceful religion.

The Somalis dragged the bodies of our soldiers through their streets. Our response is to start importing them into this country. What I have read of a Somali community in Ohio, they sure are not enriching our lives.

The Muslimization of the USA marches on.
