He has been on our radar for two years, mainly he was a jihadist net surfer.

Yemen is completely infested with AQ.

How do we put someone on a "terror watch list" but not on a "no fly" list????? And issue them a US visa to (obviously) come to the US??? What are we doing, welcoming anyone on a "terror watch list".

OK, I agree that keeping them out would tip them off that we are on to them. Whatever, let them know they are watched because frankly we can elint watch them easier overseas, and maybe scare them off.

Has ANYONE been able to find somewhere in reporting of this almost horrific event, what the religious background of this slime bucket filler is?

"who apparently sewed bomb materials into the suspect's underwear"

HA HA! He couldn't find the fuse. Must have forgotten his reading glasses.

The device consisted of a six-inch packet of powder and a syringe with a liquid. Both were sewn into the student's underwear so they would be near his testicles and unlikely to be detected.

Look for ball searches in an airport near you.

“Abdulmutallab made contact via the internet with a radical imam in Yemen”

Same one the Ft Hood shooter was involved with?

>Abdulmutallab suffered second-degree burns in his genital area.

The only better outcome would be third degree burns in his genital area.

Maybe if they know we were on to them, they wouldn't be trying this crap in the first place.

I say keep them all out...just a thought.

So far, the ONLY surprising thing about this “incident” is that he was unsuccessful. Everything else is/was as predictable as the sun rising in the east.

Officials tell ABC News he was on a U.S. “terror watch list” but not on the “no fly” list, which would have prevented him from boarding the flight.

Here they go again.. The list to be on the list......... Just what is it going to take with them.

sewed bomb materials into the suspect's underwear...bomb failed because the detonator may have been too small

A metaphor for the Islamofascists.

We escaped a big one on this plane. Let’s hope they change security, because al queda does not give up on targets they just begin to look for other routes and means of deliveries.

AND additional warning from his Father, that was ignored.

"Published reports in Nigeria said Abdulmutallab's father had contacted the U.S. embassy six months ago about concerns his son had become radicalized and could pose a threat to the U.S. One report said the father could not understand why his son was allowed to board a flight to the U.S. given his warning. "

I’m certain “His Royal Highness” has been in contact with AG Holder to make certain one of his friends will represent Mr. Abdulmutallab pro bono when charges are filled.

“Both were sewn into the student’s underwear ...”

.
Aw shucks. New MO for airport security is to demand that ALL drop their drawers and have them checked for explosives. Dirty baby diapers will be sent to lab to see if the yellow stinky paste is really what it should be and not something that goes BOOOM in midflight.

And all this because we were stupid enough to allow the immigration of the ROP.

If this clown was on a "terror watch" list, then:
WHY WASN'T HE "WATCHED" (QUESTIONED, SEARCHED) WHEN HE TRIED TO BOARD A FLIGHT INTO THE U.S.???

Talk about dumber than dumb. Explosive powder near his genitals! That must’ve hurt, dude.

Anyhow, where are the whiny liberals who would normally link this terrorist attack to Obama’s bombing in Yemen (if it were GWBush who did the bombing)?

Did Obama get UN approval to attack a sovereign nation? /sarc
