Fla. cops: Man threatening Jews taken off flight

Seeing the pictures of an American president bowing and scraping to the Saudi king and the Japanese emperor sickens me.

Think about the irony of that: the first black man to achieve the highest office in the land reduces himself (and, by implication, us) to the status of a slave to these people.

What was the point of ever getting off the plantation, Barry, if you were only going to bow and scrape to your new masters?

The man has no balls.

[rintense]

Yep. But I’m sure Obama views Dearborn as a example of Muslims living peacefully in the US.

Be prepared to protect your self and your family. No one else will be protecting you.

Very little talk about the plane that was diverted with an escort of F-15’s back to Portland en-route to Hawaii, all because a passenger refused to stow his carry on bag.

I imagine that he will sue over being profiled and certainly his companions will also. Seems strange that out HATE crime laws don’t cover this.

[Chickensoup]

and yet the man threatening the Maui flight, which caused to fighter jets to scramble.... was allowed to go free

You are joking?

[RummyChick]

it was more than that..he supposedly made threats..what kind of threats I don’t know...and no release of his name that I have seen.

[popdonnelly]

Typical Jew-hating bum.

............."This was definitely a planned stunt, either to see what the reaction would be or to desensitize us to Muslims doing weird things (so they can one day do something really weird, like blow up the plane).".............

So what was the reaction from any federal officials? Nothing. It seems to be a local LE issue. From the article,

............FBI spokeswoman Judy Orihuela said there were no indications the disturbance was related to terrorism. The bureau was initially brought in to look into the incident but is no longer involved in the investigation. She said the FBI is treating the disruption as a matter for local authorities..........

...............Authorities used a stun gun to subdue Asad on the jet bridge after he charged at an officer with fists clenched. He also chanted in a foreign language and threatened officers during a search.

"I'm not afraid of you cops, I've gotten in fights with cops in Ohio and broke their arms in three places," he said, according to the affidavit. "I've broken skulls too!".............

They are ramping up to something big.

you forgot “let’s not jump to any conclusions”

[GI Joe Fan]

So a guy named Mohammed wants to kill all of the Jews, eh?

Why do I often feel alone when I recall that Mein Kampf and the Koran both read precisely the same when it comes to their unified hatred of Jewish people?

[Inspectorette]

Not a joke. The guy and his "companion" are from Salem, and they were released.

The local morning news out of Portland is all over this, the reporterette was asking the U.S. Attorney if there are going to be any charges brought, and he used the typical mealy-mouthed weasel words.

The interviewed some of the passengers when they finally got to Maui. They said it was a pretty scary scenario.

[DTogo]

And throw the Race Card in for good measure.

[riri]

Gotta be part of a probing operation.

Sure seems like there is a centralized effort coming from somewhere to get them to suddenly be this overtly brazen. Mosques, chat rooms? I don't know.

[livius]

Odd language. Was this guy a Black Muslim, I wonder? They often take full Arabic names. It might also explain why the authorities felt they had to handle him with kid gloves.

[When do we get liberated?]

Actually the crime formerly known as terrorism iIS a local law enforcement issue. It wont be an issue of national importance until they start attacking golf courses.

[Cinnamon Girl]

How do you feel about the fact that he was ALREADY ON THE PLANE?

[ml/nj]

Police say an airline passenger in Miami proclaimed "I want to kill all the Jews" before officers forced him off a Detroit-bound plane.

Can't be. He must have done something else.
