Feds probe alleged terrorists who tried to rent giant truck in suspected Al Qaeda bomb plot
NY Daily News.com ^ | September 19th 2009 | DAILY NEWS WRITERS

Investigators probed a failed Queens truck rental for ties to a possible Al Qaeda bomb plot yesterday as a chief terror suspect tried making a deal to save his skin.

The truck rental bid failed when none of the men could produce a valid credit card. All refused to surrender the identification needed to pay cash, the manager of the Flushing U-Haul said.

A team of FBI agents spent 10 hours Thursday combing through the Queens truck rental business.

At least three Afghan men - including Ahmad Afzali, a Queens imam identified by a U-Haul employee as one of the would-be renters - were questioned in New York by FBI and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, sources said.

You’re welcome. Incidentally, I didn’t get the feel that it was no more because of some sort of Terrorist incident; rather, because the Oligarchy decided it was no more. Felt like a merger of sorts had occurred.

Zazi spent the day meeting with his lawyer, and probably observing the end of Ramadan.

a group of Afghani men attempted to rent the largest truck available back on September 9.

Naiz Khan housed Zazi while he was in Queens, they also attended the same mosque in New York. Ahmad Afzali owns a funeral home in Queens. Afzali was coincidentally quoted by the New York Times back in 2003 in an article that gives some insights into the Afghan community — many arriving since the Afghanistan war began — in and near the area.

''It's been a great opportunity for us financially,'' said Ahmad W. Afzali, who runs a Muslim funeral parlor in Flushing.

Press Here

the New York Post reported today that seven accomplices were detained in New York on Friday

unfolding terrorism plot centered on Najibullah Zazi

5-month period last year he opened 15 credit cards and spent nearly $40,000 on them. In court papers at the time he listed himself as single, contrary to recent statements that he has visited Pakistan several times to visit a wife near the Afghanistan border.

Could you elaborate a bit on that, please . . . and in paragraphs! LOL.

Pleas elaborate on the merger aspect and that it is still a current valid active concern.

Surely.

My impression was that “Avenue of the Americas” was not representative of the street; but, rather, of the Continents. I felt as if our national sovereignty had been given away in a global sense, that we had been merged with at least Mexico and Canada but possibly South America as well, and that “the Americas” were no more. The fact that the dream was set in Flushing Meadows park, a place I was completely unaware of before researching the dream, may indicate that the U.N. is somehow involved.

One final note. I did not feel afraid at all. Just sad. I felt as if I was in a place of safety. Not touchable by the oligarchy. Yet, I was observing the end of our nation as we know it.

Yup!

What’s really galling is that it’s the fault of both parties, the globalist, Rhinos who run the Repub party are as complicate as the Rats.

Bush had a Republican majority for 5+ years after 9-11. Bush and the Rhinos who run the Repub party are globalists for whom free movement of goods and natural persons is more important than national security. Before those who want immigration law enforced and borders secured were called ‘domestic terrorists’ by Zero’s administration they were labeled ‘vigilantes’ by Bush.
